Ardent Elite

Details Customer Reviews Shipping & Returns Video

The Ardent Elite™, a fresh take and Vader's Vault spin on traditional design themes. Our first true "Thin Neck" Combat Class saber, we took extra care that while giving the look, balance and feel of the thin neck, we didn't sacrifice the duel worthy durability of the Combat Class. Meant for the active saberist, this saber is balanced and comfortable, melding with the wielder's hands like it was meant for them since birth. Offered with your choice of emitter crown and neck accent colors, as well as black powdercoated accents on the body sections and pommel. The emitter is packed with detail, from the elegant rounded rings at the crown, to the 4 sets of light emitting 'gill slits' in the center. The engraved detail around the switch area offers an asymmetrical catch for the eye. Just enough to give the area some contrast. The other side offers the chance to add extra flair with an optional SMD LED bargraph or OLED screen, and different frame metals as well. The middle v-grooved grip provides a non-slip surface in a traditional fashion. The rear, vertically milled 'booster' section offers an off-set look to the v-grooved grip. The pommel stands out as a very familiar power cell design with raised cubes, but in a non obtrusive, unique placement, complete with wide sound vents for great volume and resonance control. This entire saber screams elegance, and power. Get yours today!

Ardent Elite is just beautiful

I received my RGB Ardent Elite with heavy weathering, black chrome accents, black AV switch and covertec last week. My wait was around 32 weeks. It was a long haul, but so worth it. None of the pictures I have seen on the internet do this saber justice. It looks like what you would expect a real lightsaber would look like in person. The LEDs are very bright, the sound is crisp and clear. I have spent a lot of time trying different settings for FOC, sensitivity, sound fonts, colors, etc and it is just a blast. I am very impressed. I have had top tier sabers from some of the larger saber companies and there is just no comparison. My Ardent crushes them on every metric.
Just Awesome!

I wanted a beautiful saber that had the most advanced design and features available, so I ordered the Ardent Elite in gold 8 months ago. It was a long wait, but I couldn't be happier with the result.

The workmanship put into this piece is amazing. The build quality is superb... it feels so solid in my hand. The weighty heft, sound, RGB colors everything makes me feel like I almost bought a real working lightsaber. I'm going to have a lot of fun with this one! I'm sure all my other friends will be very jealous.
Super awesome saber!

As a big Star Wars fan I was very pleased with the quality of the product! The sound effects are awesome and replicates the savers in the movies very well. Would definitely recommend!
