I'd especially like to see one on a curved hilt like the Bane. It might look really awesome, almost like a Persian shamshir.

Or put it in the Katana and it might almost look like… a katana?
Probably would look rad in the Insurgent also. Similar to a shirasaya.

I laughed so hard at this man, stupid funny. Thanks for the laugh. Damn those 1,000 dollar backers, really want that bane

The beauty of having Photoshop and too much spare time B) I really want a Bane too, but don't fear I'm sure we'll be getting them soon enough.

And I've gotta agree with everyone on the Katana shaped blade. Anyone got any ideas if they'll be released separately sometime soon?

Starting to have problems containing the impatience... with nothing to do but sit and wait for sabers and cosplay goodies and drool over the pics of this stuff it's getting really hard to stay sane.

I know the feeling. I'm waiting on some custom made black Jedi robes from eBay and I'm currently holding back on buying another Saber as I have a friend who's offering a really nice deal. He wants to buy a Saber from SF and as I'm keen to get one as well, he offered to chuck in a little bit on my purchase and the postage. So I have to wait... But at the cost of paying a little less.

Ripper Sabers already does a Pre Vizsla black blade as well as katana and other style of blades. Just they can't be duelled with. Only display/cosplay purposes. They look rad though.

I don't think any blade that thin would be safe to duel with tbh.

A katana blade in the Katana? Nahhh. No one's going to do that... :P (I kid!)

Hopefully the next update comes soon with more details.

I hope so too. A couple of reference pictures would be nice too.

I don't want to picture some of the hilarious stuff that people are going to do with the curved blades... Bent off to the side, upside down, etc.

I can't wait to see all the parts that are going to be available. This is going to be my first Light Sabre. Mario you probably are getting this a lot. Is there any new update when some new pics of the ASP pieces will be posted? I'm trying to wait patiently like everyone else lol. My brother and i are hoping to make a trip to the Saber Forge showroom this summer since we only live a couple hours away. I hope you guys found out who stole that one sabre.

I think the Kickstarter is experiencing "Bane Drain." I've been keeping an eye on the analytics and I see the number of contributors growing but the $s contributed shrinking. I believe the release of the Bane is in direct correlation to the decrease in $.

What does everyone think of the strech goal being expanded to 400k, the new stretch goals, and the stretch goal expanded parts?

I think 400k might be pushing it... don't know if they'll get that much. Tho, anything is possible! Guess we'll have to wait and see. :)

I noticed on the wording, it says
150$ and up backers will get to chose one extra ASP part, or an extra blade!
.... which to me, says "no katana blade".... =/ that makes me a little sad. The reward for this tier seems awfully underwhelming if it's just an extra V4 blade or 1 extra ASP piece... I guess that could come in useful if you couldn't decide between 2 pommels, for example, but...
700$ and up backers will get a free BANE curved saber hilt, compatible with ASP electronic kits!

Makes me wish I had enough to hit this tier of backing now instead. -_- Get my extra Bane, and a staff saber... and only need to purchase an electronics kit for the Bane? hells yah. But... I don't have the cash for that type of pledge, especially since I can't seem to sell anything for the life of me suddenly. lol...

Thanks to your support we reached our kickstarter funding goal in just 6 days.

It has been an incredible experience watching all of you respond to our project with such enthusiasm, but we haven't been idle the last week, we have come up with stretch goals, new parts, and extra rewards!!!

Our stretch goal is 400k, and we have 30 days to reach it so SPREAD THE WORD!

If we reach our stretch goal we are going to launch with more than 25 additional parts shown below. Also, if we hit our stretch goal we will be sending out these extra rewards:

150$ and up backers will get to chose one extra ASP part, or an extra blade!

700$ and up backers will get a free BANE curved saber hilt, compatible with ASP electronic kits!
400k is easily reachable if current trends persist. "Bane Drain" is a real thing though and I think SF needs to really focus on ASP and not any other new sabers if they wanna see this to the 400k goal. Their base constituents only have so much pocket money. Therefore this will only fly if new blood is brought in. So that means if we want to see this succeed we need to start plugging it like mad.

Knytiri I agree that 400K is pushing it. I hope it is reached, but I deff have my doubts and I'm hoping they just changed the wording to blade for those who would prefer a V4 over the katana blade.

I think a lot of people will be happy about the lowered pledge of $700 for a free bane hilt tho.

Thanks for posting the update h2soy, I didn't want to steal your job and figured as soon as I posted it I would have found you beat me lol.
