| AFAIK the machine that LP use to make them broke down around the time they were moving premises and it hasn't been right since so they haven't been able to produce any for a number of months now. |

| Still anxiously awaiting their return. I had one that lasted a couple of months, and loved it. I'd gladly buy another 2 or 3 if they're ever made again. |

| Any body that pays 125.00 for a sabre balde is nuts. There one thing that all sabre blades do is break. I rather buy a whole bunch of 15.00 dollars chinse blades myself

| Also, if you really wanted to spend a lot of money on a blade, you could get an LM instead. They're about $35-45, and none of the vendors I regularly use carry them.
I think they feel almost identical to StMs though. |

| and these StMs have a balance point close the guard? (thats what im looking for)
i tried BF , they are very light, but the balance is off
they have to much pull
also tried allstars "S20 Ecostar" , which was pretty good but still not the same
