My Dark Initiate V3 Le Blazing Red Review

[Lord Benzile]

This is my review. i currently dont have a voice right now due to a loud screaming concert i attended few days ago. But i looked at other initiate reviews and couldnt find a handling one so i thought itd show how well this hilt can be saber spun.

 I also am showing how well the blade is secured inside the hilt by trying to swing down trying to make it pop out. I have blazing red with ignited power button, silver flash on clash and lock up, charge port(great feature), dark catalyst pomel, 32" mid grade blade(which stick out the hilt about 30 1/2 inches...gives it a better balance im 5"9). By the way i held it up to my TV screen while it was off because that seems to make a more accurate idea of what the color is like in person(Sorta) rather then how the camera picks it up with the white like in the movies.  Hope you enjoy

Nice saber. I see you wen't all out on it. Lol. and where did you get that Sith bracelet at?? Where! I wish I could get enough saved up to just go all out on a next saber. Nice Obi-Ani spins by the way. You could totally pull off a full duel with those moves.

The bracelet was hard to find as they were oit of stock everywhere i googled. i happemed to find this last one on a site i googled from...key words star wars rubber sith bracelet.

I do duel alot but with people that dont know how so ots difficult. I have to teach them. the obi/ani spin amd the um flower spin are basic fun spins. this hilt is about the same size as my katana blade. ive been in martial arts and weapons training since a teen so a kendo stick has the same feel as the sabersadjusting to a culi

Nice. I'm going to be getting me a fully powered Overlord once I get a job and enough saved up. It'll be in BR with silver FOC, in hilt fast charge, and a Heavy Grade blade, oh and Obsidian with red illuminated av switch. I want to go all out on this one. =] I think I will like the Overlord because nothing seems to be in the way for spins and such. Might get me a longer pommel though if its not loud enough for me. I will be putting the Dooku font on and I want the saber to be nice, deep, and loud sounding. I find having a shorter but longer pommel has a more deep sound, like the Bellicose short pommel.

this catalyst pomel seems loud to me. two master replicas on next to it and i can still hear my US. As far as hilts go i fell for the initiate. I was looking at a basic as well but it cost more? and is more boring looking. Lucly i have friends who have some of the more fancy smancy hitls but i couldnt have a s much fun as i do with mine. I plan on getting the same set up done on a regular initiate buy summer except in guardian blue. I was looking at a prophesy but the lower handle didnt have a good grip IMO.

Im more of a active cosplayer than just for show. rather be able to have my saber active as part of the cosplay  then just have it for display or waving around. I go great lenghts to be close to the character so people who are taking photos or filming can have a memorable experience
