And you though it was not possible...

I got the first one and it came bent, so a few hateful e-mails later the owner decided to send me a new one, free. Smart choice.

Too bad you have to drop the second one to melee. Cause we all know its impossible to hit someone while holding 2 weapons. Bungie has taught us that.

Cool energy swords, bro

So why didn't you just bend the first one back into shape :p

I read an article in OXM about them.

Another question: are they actually sharp, and if not, are they made of a good enough steel to hold a nice blade?

That's pretty cool, though I must admit that I'm not a fan of the metal they used for the blades, it doesn't look all that great in my opinion.

there stainless steel.

But why is it rainbow? Yeah, the sword has rainbow-ey stuff to it, but :/. Still cool I guess.

Exactly, and that doesn't really look good for an Energy Sword.

Spray paint them electric blue with neon coloring and it will be amazing.

It's a great way to tackle robbers, the neighbor's annoying barking animals, and the random coons that run around your yard. You also have the privilege of yelling like an ELITE whenever you have the sword.....but the first part is complete bullshit and I advise you not take it seriously at all....:XD:

you mentioned that one of them came bent, but are they flexible? the metal looks alot like the metal on my sabre i use for fencing, and that metal can bend alot then spring right back into shape. it gets somewhat permanently bent sometimes though. im just wondering

Is fencing fun? I've always wanted to try it but never knew if it'd be worth the time and money.

Yeah, does stainless bend a lot easier than other kinds of steels? I'm sure there is some trade-off for not having rust.

Yeah I meant raccoon, but I always forget the extra "c."

My brother has a big-ass bowie knife that he keeps by his bed....he's a college kid...dumb chicken is scared of the dark....but I have a whip in my drawer if someone breaks in my house, so they'll be stunned while my dad goes and grabs the 12 gauge and my brother grabs his freaking knife.lol. But nothing is better than the baseball bat I have in the corner of my room somewhere.lol.jk, I have not clue where it is....I think we broke it playing baseball actually.

the sabre is supposed to bend. all conventional fencing weapons are. i have an old foil that was used in the 1934 Olympics. that thing can bend, and i think its made out of iron. the bell guard has the original owner's initials in it too. it is awesome.
i like fencing more than any other sport, mainly because i suck at everything else and really dont care enough to get good at something like basketball. compared to stuff like tennis, soccer, and basketball, not alot of people do fencing, so it looks nice on a college resume. my english teacher asked my class yesterday for a show of hands for people who do sports. he immediatly looked at me and was like "wait, you do a sport?"
bottom line, im bringing my lame and helmet in tommorow for him to wear during the class :lol:

Yeah, I swim and play lacrosse, so when people start prosecuting me for not playing sports (because people are immediately judgmental of people who have a bit of grown out hair, weak verbal comebacks, and glasses being bad at sports) I can just tell them I play two of the most ruthless sports out there. Swimming is extremely tiring and demands a lot of strength to be good at. Lacrosse is like soccer and hockey (not to mention you have a solid ball flying through the air at 30+mph) and you run through a field of people trying to slash and bash you with all of their strength. See, it's hilarious how judgmental people are and......wait wasn't this about an energy sword?

Paladin, are you going to add a glowing blue to it or keep it as is?

Its flexible, but the blade was kinked. I heated it up and bend as straight as I could.

I should show you the box... it was literally delivered in two pieces, god damn Fedex. As for the blades, they're not SHARP but they're sharp enough to do damage if you run your finger on the edge or swing at someone.
