I use a 32" blade, of which,
a good 2" goes within the emitter
thereby essentially shortening the exposed blade to 28".

32-2 = 28?   huh?

 :-[ typo lol, even on my past post....

Corrected...

Lol no worries my math is terrible unless I use a calculator, or its even worse if I use my iPhone, stupid iPhone hahahaha

Had my Badaxx show up today and Rob made a few tweaks for me and I have to say it is awesome.  Hands down best powder coat color ever.  It is a dark bronze that is just incredible.  I asked Rob for something dark and almost rusted and he told me about this and I could not be happier.  As soon as I get home I want to get some pictures up.

Please do.  I would love to see this custom powder coated Badaxx.
Your description sounds amazing.

Oh I cannot wait to see it, I was looking at Rob's page on facebook and he has as few pics on there of his Ascend line that have that dark coppery metallic finish on them and I was going to ask him to do a style of the Badaxx like that and I am curious to see how yours turned out if it is the same color or not.  So jealous lol...

Thanks for the positive review!
I worked long and hard to make this design feel "just right" in the hand. I'm pleased that's what stands out to you.

Blade length and balance are very much a personal preference thing. The saber was designed with 32-36" thin wall blades in mind.

I never saw you posted on here Rob, you are most welcome but really you deserve all the thanks.  Between a fabulous saber build and fantastic customer service you have made a customer for life.  That means I will be bugging you for a custom build lol... and I have 2 iedas that I hope one of them will peak your interest.  Can not wait till April to email over to you.

One note I got a 32" blade finally and man is it perfect for me, so well balanced it almost feels like no blade is in there at all.

Most of us have a Photobucket account, it's ideal for saber pictures and will allow you to keep things organized.

They are back in stock and I bought and reviewed mine. Short story is they are great.

I didn't think anything could have topped the Ascend as a production saber. Awesome
