    SaberForge without a doubt. They have about 3 - 4 months waiting time before they ship out, and they are a bit more expensive than Ultra Sabers, but their product is definitely worth the wait.

    Ultra Sabers also have beautyfull hilts + you'll get your saber within a week or so, but many of their hilts are cursed with a rattling LED. I have heard it from several people + I have my own Ultra Saber which has the same issue.

    Plain and simple, for top notch product, go with SaberForge.
    For fast delivery and medium product, go with Ultra Sabers.

    Thats my opinion.

    See, I have had the opposite experience of Luke's Beard above. I own 3 Ultrasabers at 3 different tiers, and recently got my order in from Saberforge. My Saberforge saber has literally never worked right and is currently being replaced by them. They do the right thing by you, as long as your respectful, but they have more issues in my experience.

    I will say though with Ultrasabers and Saberforge, since they are assembled by hand, there is always the chance of you getting an amazingly well constructed saber, or one that was rushed due to large work volume...its human error. I will say though, the flash on clash features of Ultrasabers definitely adds a great element if you intend on duelling.

    I have decided to go with Saberforge. I looked through youtube and found 6 videos of Ultrasabers with errors and 1 video of a Saberforge saber with errors. That basically says it all.

    These videos are just from 2015 and 2016.

    i agree do not buy from UltraSabers.
    their socalled *fast delivery* service is laughable, i have had an order there for a Dark Mantis for almost a year and i still havnt heard from them.

    i ordered a Dark Mantis from UltraSabers back in july 2015. i emailed them back in the end of October and after about 2 weeks i received an email and was told that my saber was finished and ready to be shipped out. then i waited another month without receiving any shipping notification or anything. then i decided to email them again to get to the bottom of what was going on. after 3 weeks i received an email from the owner of UltraSabers telling me to *calm the f**k down and wait. i then waited two months and still nothing. i then emailed them again despite the rude reply i got from the owner the last time. after another 3 weeks i got a reply from the owner telling me that my saber had been shipped out and a shipping notification was sent to my email. i then checked my email and nothing at all. at that point i had just about enough, after being lied to i decided to email them one last time and ask for a refund. a week passes and i got an email from the owner again telling me that a refund was out of the question since my saber had already been made and shipped out. what i still found curious was that i never received any shipping notice so i could track my saber. after about a month i emailed them again and asked point blank *what is going on with my order.* this time an UltraSabers employee replied to my email after about 1 week and told me that they havnt gotten around to making my saber yet and they had no idea when they would be able to make my saber. its now June 5 and after 11 months im still waiting.
    what makes me angry the most is that the owner straight up lied to me and told me that it had been shipped out, while being rude to me in the first email and telling me to calm the f**k down. you dont treat your customers like that. the least he could do was be honest and admit that they havent made it yet. but i guess that is to much to ask. i will post here again once i have received my saber and tell you all about it.. once i receive it this will definitely be my first and last UltraSabers since their customer service stinks.
    So NEVER buy from UltraSabers. The owner is rude and the Company is unstable.

    See thats just what i mean. When people are making it clear that the hilts have loose L.E.D's then Ultrasabers should fix that problem instead of ignoring it and keep selling sabers with Loose L.E.D's. Thats unprofessional.

    Vader's Vault.

    I plan on buying my first ever saber from them soon. I got inside info that they plan to release Ahsoka sabers as seen in Rebels.
