I know just how you feel about the Talon. It is an awesome saber, and worth of all the praise.

Congrats!
Imagine what you will know tomorrow....

Great review, Prowl. That's a fantastic looking and sounding saber for sure. I really like how they did the weathering on it. :)

Thanks guys. It is a great saber, and Deep Red is a nice color too. I also really liked the weathering job on it. Thinking about a Prodigy next, can't decide which blue to get it in.

If you want a solid blue, then Medium Blue or Light Blue. If you want a classic ANH blue, then Arctic Blue. As for Deep Blue, I think you can imagine what that looks like (Ultrasabers Guardian Blue).

Yes, I figured that Deep blue was close to the US GB, thanks for the confirmation. I do like that color a lot, but I'm considering the medium blue as well. I've just been watching some YT video of yours (I think, you are Sidious Sabers right?)I like the videos because I see the the color reflected off the blade against the background really well and it gives me a good idea of the color.

Yes, I am. :) You can also consider a Blue Day Blade because it gives a different impression of any particular blue. The SF Arctic Blue is also similar to the US Arctic Blue for a given blade choice. Blades do make a difference as you would know from your experience.

Your vids have been helpful, (your advice too), thanks for both. I know you like Medium blue(your favorite blue I believe you said in your Prodigy review) as well, I may that go direction. The color looks nice.

Hi Prowl,

I thought I had better leave you a comment here as well! So glad you like the Talon, it does have a nice weathering on it. I'm not sure if it's the shape of the hilt or the knurling that makes the difference, either way it's sweet.

Hope this saber serves you long and well,

For Tyeth


p.s. And I'll just repeat I'm glad you liked the Disciple too ;)

The Prodigy is an awesome saber. It's another longer one, with plenty of room for two hands.

That's perfect for me as I prefer smaller hilts that still work well with a two-handed grip. (One of the reasons I am so fond of the US Prophecy.)
