Best Lightsabers for Dueling
Lightsaber enthusiasts have diverse preferences, from those who appreciate the visual aesthetics for maneuvers like Obi-Ani spins to those who seek the best lightsabers for dueling. If you’re interested in actual combat, our customizable dueling lightsabers are durable and balanced for precision. For the most intense enthusiasts, full-contact fighting lightsabers provide a realistic option for sparring. At Ultrasabers, we offer several blade types designed for the type of sparring lightsaber experience you’re looking for. Create your own custom dueling lightsaber, or choose from one of our character-inspired lightsabers.
Dueling with Ultrasabers Combat Lightsabers
At Ultrasabers, we take pride in our ability to create durable lightsabers that allow wielders to tap into the power of the Force. Explore our wide range of battle-ready lightsabers, and find a smartly designed saber that will stand up to lightsaber sparring.
While we understand the beauty of pixel blades and offer them as an option, we recommend going with an in-hilt LED for full contact sparring. Pairing an in-hilt LED with a Heavy Grade Blade means you can flail away with your Ultrasabers blade (within reason) without fear of harming its ability to remain properly illuminated. It’s part of what separates our authentic dueling lightsaber experience from the competition.
Lightsabers for Dueling: Four Different Blade Types
While all lightsabers might look similar, their combat capabilities can differ significantly. For those involved in rigorous dueling, the blade type is crucial.
Ultrasabers offers four blade types tailored to various levels of dueling intensity:
- Mid-Grade: Ideal for light, casual dueling, these blades are lightweight and designed to bend without breaking, ensuring longevity and superior brightness.
- UltraEdge Mid-Grade: Similar to Midgrade but includes white polycarbonate for a fuller blade illumination.
- Heavy Grade: Double the thickness and weight of Midgrade blades, these are highly durable and suitable for more intense dueling scenarios.
- UltraEdge Heavy Grade: Combines the durability of Heavy Grade blades with enhanced illumination, perfect for those who need a battle-ready saber.
Heavy Grade and UltraEdge Heavy Grade blades are recommended for those seeking a full contact lightsaber experience.
Wielding Your Dueling Lightsaber
Making a custom dueling lightsaber is more than just picking a blade. It involves considering the hilt’s ergonomics to ensure it complements your dueling style. The right fit can significantly impact your control and comfort during a duel.
Personal Fit: Choosing the best lightsaber for dueling often depends on personal characteristics. For those with smaller hands, a hilt that fits well is crucial for effective dueling. Our V2 series, with its skinny hilts, has proven valuable for diminutive yet dangerous duelers.
Tip Comfort: Both pointed and rounded tips perform similarly during combat. However, some duelists find pointed tips uncomfortable for opponents in thrust maneuvers.
Wide Selection: At Ultrasabers, our extensive range of high-quality dueling lightsabers ensures that you can find the perfect model for your needs. Feel free to reach out with any questions about our custom, battle-ready lightsabers.
