As a self-taught amatuer duelist (I started at the rip old age of 10,eons back lol),I needed to graduate to something much more durable than the $20 hasbro sabers. So I scoured Internet and YouTube lookin for a suitable alternative, then found all of you guys and freakin got more than few sabers, I got a whole extended family of Star Wars enthusiasts, too! Its truly an honor and privilege to be apart of these fine forums! Lol, ok, rant over. :)
