Greetings. Been a SW fan my whole life and always wanted some form of the Luke Graflex saber. I really like the look one the of you can build here. I also want to do some mix-and-match sabers made from ASP parts.

Whoever thought of making sabers out of individual components was a genius. I love the CNC machined parts. Can't wait to get started!

I am sure I will have many questions in the future.

Hey guys, I'm I am Rowdy

I a fan of the craftsmanship and looking forward to buying a new saber in the near future.

My family and I like to cosplay, spar, and create techniques for saber fighting. We all are practitioners of American Kenpo Karate study Kali Filipino stick fighting. So we have a lot of fun with the sabers we have and are always looking for more.

I am originally from the NYC, but moved to SoCal in the early 2000's.

Hi!
Long time lurker, first time forge buyer. While this isn't the first lightsaber I've bought (Ultrasaber in 2011) I hope this one won't break like the last one. (turns out if you smack an Army private in the Kevlar too many times the narrow necked ones snap... Who knew?!?) :huh:

Now all I can do is wait for my ASP parts to arrive so I can assemble it!

Greetings from Belgium, Saberforgers. Came across SF a few weeks ago, been lurking on the forum for a couple of days now. And eagerly awaiting my first saber: T3 standard purple 37" bladed Archon Veridian.
I know my avatar isn't SW related but make no mistake, I like Star Wars eqaully as I like Stargate or Star Trek. As long as it has epic battles, be it in space or with lightsabers or P90s and staff weapons.

May the Forg/ce be with you.

Hi Everyone!

Long time casual fan of Star Wars here, favorite is Jedi but the best is Empire. I purchased my first saber around Christmas last year and just upgraded it because as cool as the glowing stick is, it just isn't quite the same without the sound. The sound design is really what makes it a SABER saber. I'm also looking to get a ASP saber soon. I'm saving up for that. I hope to check out some cool custom designs on here for ideas. And I hope to produce one of the many fan series soon, having just discovered the Darth Maul one my creative side is itching to get started. Hope to meet other people who will join in the journey.

Greetings my fellow saber fans!

I'm James, I have been a long time Star Wars fan. I stumbled across Saber forge's lightsabers on Facebook a little over a year ago and i wanted one right away. Ordered my first saber, or my first pair rather last year.
I'm a little late joining the forum, usually don't join these type of things. I currently own a pair of Gladius sabers and i LOVE them! Have recently gotten into cosplay as well, I have a awesome Grey Jedi robe cosplay. I also just ordered my first ASP saber, can't wait till it arrives! Looking forward to meeting some fellow hobbyist. I am currently living in Kentucky. May the force be with us!

Hi all, just joined the forum as I began my Lightsaber collection a couple of months ago with the Black Series Darth Vader saber and absolutely loved it!

I was after a ROTJ Luke saber but the Black Series one just looks awful and after doing some searching around heard that you guys were the best in the business, so here I am!

Welcome DiehardSatsuma.

I think you will find that the Prodigal Son V2 (V2 meaning weathered finish) is a pretty darned good approximation of the ROTJ Luke Saber. It is not quite movie accurate, but it close enough to be very satisfying to behold.

Hello. You can call me Watchmaker. I've been a fan of star wars for some time - as far back as the old X-Wing and Dark Forces games, as well as watching the Special Editions in a cinema, when they were amazing, new re-releases.

As for why I'm here, I've always wanted a proper Lightsaber 'prop'. I've got one from Genesis Custom Sabers that I've touched up a little. However, one in particular stuck out in my mind, from the Old Republic: The hilt that the Gladius/Gladiator homages.

Hello. I'm James, a lifelong Star Wars fan. It was lightsabers that ignited my interest in sword arts, and for the past several years I've studied various martial arts (military saber, German longsword), mostly academically owing to a shortage of training partners. I'll be receiving my first Saber Forge lightsaber in the very near future, so figured it was time to introduce myself.
