Hey guys my names Josh and I recently got into this hobby. I'm a huge Star Wars fan and when I found SF I knew it would be impossible not to buy one of their products especially because you can duel with them! My first saber ended up being the Oracle and it is so cool! I probably should've joined this forum when I first ordered it back in April but I decided to wait until I got it so i could do a review on it because the reviews on this site are one of the most helpful things when it comes to not only deciding which saber to get, but also the finish and color of each saber. I also recently ordered a Bane off the Etsy site so I'll probably review that too.
Straying away from saber talk I recently started reading some Legends material (which I had never gotten into previously) and I really like how Legends & Canon are so different yet both very good in their own way. I'm a lot more knowledgable about canon material but exploring into legends this late is still really fun for me. Better late than never right?
Anyways, thank you Saberforge for making some awesome products and it looks like this forum will be a fun place for discussion :cheer:

Greetings everyone Chris here hiding away in the frozen north (Canada). Like probably many others here I'm a huge Star Wars fan and when I found this site I just couldn't help but order a pair of Sentinel Sabers, now the waiting with baited breath begins - just 12 short weeks...

I've played some with ASP Virtual Builder and I know what my future sabers will probably be.

Greetings, Long time lurker. Finally joined the forum.

I'm currently waiting on my first SF saber a Champion Bastion with Purple 12w+ - also ordered a day blade with it.

Just getting into the custom saber scene, I have a couple MR sabers but this will be my first "Custom" saber. Hoping to eventually get into being a smith, and looking forward to building a saber for my son.

Hello everyone,

My name is Isaiah, have been a long time star wars fan since I was about 4 or 5 years old. Finally about ready to get a lightsaber at 20. Big fan of all the films and legends material, particularly the old republic and clone wars eras.

Joined the forums to see some reviews of different designs and get a feel for this community, and I will soon be ordering a Warrior Bastion 12W in white as my first saber for use with a local choreography group. New to the saber community but excited to get into it and learn some of the different forms. Want to thank everyone here for this awesome community, and may the force be with you!

Hi All :cheer:

My name is Ivan, I currently live in Sydney Australia.
Massive star wars fan since I was a child. I currently have a saberforge Redeemer. Since then I have been bitten by the bug and I just want more.

Being in Sydney there is no one else currently who is in the business of creating and selling custom sabers. So I really love visiting Saberforge and looking over the sabers, wondering which one I want to buy next.

Very new to the custom saber community. Thought where else best to start other than Saberforge. Some of the sabers are amazing and knowing you can duel with them just makes the fantasy all better!

Besides sabers, I enjoy powerlifting, motorbike riding, video games. All the things big boys like.

Cheers all!

Welcome Ivan, me again from the other Topic you Posted in. Excellent startup with your mentioned Redeemer. What finish and colour LED did you get? Better yet, even if it's an older acquisition how about sharing a Review of it in the Reviews Sections. There's just one Rule (amongst some others) Pictures! (unless you plan on uploading a Video Review in which case, Moving Pictures!) :P

Thank you for the Introduction. Lots to see and read here too. Enjoy. B)

EDIT:
Oversight. Welcome also Jas-Ot and Zai-Xen. Thank you both also for you Introductions.
As New Members (Unleashediv, you can jump in on this too), it is encouraged that you observe the Forum Rules and regardless of whether it's your First Purchase, soon-to-be First Purchase or repeated Purchase, check out the FAQs also.

Hey OvrcAHst.

Again thank you so much for the warm welcome. I think I will definitely do a review of my Redeemer! I have had so much fun with it and so durable.

Got a light blue 12W+ LED, with the standard finish. I actually believe it is an older version (still awesome) as the new version on the site has a slightly longer extension before the thin neck.

But I am going to do a post with some photos and also a little on how I came about it and why I love it.

I had a good read through the Forum Rules and FAQ's. There is a lot to catch up on, so will take me sometime to get through it all. But I am loving reading what other people are doing with their sabers.

Much appreciated! :) :cheer:

I'll be doing a review of the Bastion for sure.

Planning an ASP custom build (empty hilt with NBv3 or perhaps a Prizm card) - and will do a line of posts around the build :cheer:

Hello,

I'm new to shopping for sabers. The only saber I have is a ForceFX removable blade Anakin saber I bought a few years ago.

I've been looking to move up and buy a better saber, and I'd been torn between buying from Saber Forge and, well, another prominent saber manufacturer. Part of why I already hadn't bought a saber was trying to decide which company to order from.

I found out about the Adaptive Saber Parts today however, and that's really tilted my interest more towards Saber Forge though, so I thought I'd register here to get some more information and ask some questions (like when they'll be available, since the site for them doesn't seem to have the ability to order them).

Since it's a fairly big deal for me to spend hundreds on a saber, I want to be quite sure of what I'm getting, but I'm very enthusiastic to learn more about them.

Welcome TaelinThurn and Thank you for your Introduction.
so I thought I'd register here to get some more information and ask some questions (like when they'll be available, since the site for them doesn't seem to have the ability to order them).
ASP is now Live. You can build your ideal Saber using the 3D Builder at saberparts.com and when you have decided on Parts that are to your liking and want them to be realised, head over to shopsaberparts.com with your Parts List and Order them individually.

Hope this helps. B)

Hi Everyone,

My name is David; I'm just getting started in the saber hobby. My Crystal Reveal Prodigal Son Initiate just showed up in the mail today! I'm going to be doing all of the wiring and construction myself, so am pretty excited to get started on it. Hope to post pictures of the process as I get going. I've been lurking on the forums for a while since I placed my order in April, and have already seen a lot of great information and reviews of these sabers so am looking forward to being a part of the community!

Howdy! My name is Eric Oler, AKA Surudoi Ki.

I live in the Great White North of Canada (even though Calgary is technically a very-near desert... but whatever :P ).

I have been researching sabers for a few years now, and am extremely interested in attaining one, but I still have some considerable saving to do. Super pleased with Sabeforge and their work, and super excited to be on the forum!

Cheers,
-Surudoi Ki

Hey guys!

I'm Cj and I'm a lifelong Montanan. Like many here, I've been lurking about the forum for several months, but I honestly never felt compelled to join in the conversation until today. Why? Because my very first saber came in the mail today, and I feel absolutely compelled to talk about it to anyone who will listen :woohoo:

Review coming VERY soon!!!
