Blue Gauntlet Electric Saber

Does anyone have any experience/opinion on Blue Gauntlet's electric s2000 saber? They are roughly $20 cheaper than Allstar, PBT, etc., and I was wondering if they worth the money.

Some previous posts mentioned that cheap saber blades perform just as well as the more expensive saber blades; but I'm new to saber so I really have no experience in this area.

Just wondering where's the best place to put my money.....

Thanks.

All of my sabre blades are BG. Not their bottom level blade, but the next level up (usually priced $16-18 at NACs). They work well, break infrequently, etc., etc.

The blades themselves are as oiuyt noted fine. I've no experience with their guards, grips, pommels or sockets. I have heard that their guards get chewed up and dented faster than, say, Alllstar ones, but take hearsay for what it's worth...
