Adam Savage's New Neopixel Darksaber!

Adam Savage wields the Darksaber! We unbox and assemble this incredible replica Darksaber from SaberBay, the culmination of years of design iteration and collaboration between saber replica builders on the Replica Prop Forum. Housed inside this powder-coated machined hilt is the latest in fan-designed saber technologies, from sensors and speaker to programmable electronics that make the blade truly fun to play with. Just in time for May 4th!

Thank you so much Adam and Norm and the rest of the Tested team! It’s an honor 🙏🙌

[GUCABE]

Great reactions guys. Glad you liked it so much. We all put a lot of love and care when we made it.

[DCdigitalarts]

It was an honor to provide the blade for this! The blade came before the hilt in this case and it took the longest to get right.

[mordicaiknode]

When you popped the hilt open for the crystal chamber, I literally gasped. Gorgeous.

[LizardMan]

I built one of these and One step I highly recommend its painting the crystal with a black enamel and scraping the paint away on the edges to give it that black and white aesthetic like the blade!!

I’ve been in the Sabre hobby and an attic for over four years. This is one of the most detailed and complicated dark Saber versions I’ve ever seen.

I always love Adam's" Xmas morning" reaction to a new prop

[Violianom]

I love Norm. Just as he said, 'dab a glue', I immediately went 'yabba dabba glue' and then he says it a bit afterwards. I hope your kid grows up to be just like you! Never change, Norm. Never change

[blodhthringa]

Wow, that is a gorgeous Darksaber. It is the first one I have seen that looks incredible true to the screen without having a way to gerthy handle.

Any time a Tested video starts with "Adam and Norm here in my cave" you know you're about to see something awesome being showcased!

[henryeowens]

There’s something magical about holding a metal lightsaber that rumbles your hand with realistic sound. Even my non SW nerd friends feel that once and get hooked.

[TildAbuse]

I've been collecting custom sabers for the better part of 25 years now so I'm used to a lot of what the tech can do. Watching Adam's genuine reactions to this is like watching a bright-eyed kid with a new toy for the first time. It's truly wonderful ^_^ I can't wait to see more lightsaber videos on this channel!

[morgancorey]

Nice “In Discipline” drop Adam! I caught that!

[LightTheAngel]

One things I’ve loved about this channel is the passion these guys have, it’s awesome! Never change guys.

[hanslain]

Sick AF. The maker/designers didn't squander any opportunity here... they delivered.

[Neceros]

Adam's face is all of our inner child. Adam, you're one of the coolest people I've known about.

[Blowinshiddup]

I was watching the rocket car Mythbusters episode the other day, and it struck me how excited Adam was and the fun he was having. watching this, not much has changed. The guy just exudes pure joy.

[kesselcustomsabers]

SaberBay is an absolute blessing to the hobby! He sells DIY parts too btw peeps!! Great place to get your feet wet for building your first saber!

[JamesJas]

These are my fav Episodes with Norm and Adam geeking out over something awesome. well done to the build team on the sabre, looks and sounds awesome

[mrfochs]

As one of the first-run supporters, I can say, without a doubt, that this is an Amazing build and I loved reading through the thread as the designs and manufacturing process were developed.
