RGB vs Xenopixel / Neopixel
RGB (baselit) sabers light the blade from a single LED in the hilt, offering a wide range of colours and solid effects at the best value, and the most impact-resistant build for duelling. Xenopixel and Neopixel sabers use a strip of individually-lit LEDs inside the blade for ultra-bright, uniform illumination and advanced effects. See our electronics guide and buyer’s guide.

The Story of the Katana Lightsaber V2 Round blade – Katana Saber
The Katana V2 is the premium expression of the round-blade katana — a longer, more detailed tsuka grip, refined collar work where the tsuba would sit, and finishing a grade above the V3. It pairs the traditional samurai silhouette with a standard round saber blade for full duelling flexibility. Machined from 6063 aircraft-grade aluminium.
Famous Battles & Moments
Samurai Meets Saber
Every line of the hilt follows the katana: the long wrapped-style grip, the collar in place of a tsuba, the clean sweep to the emitter. It reads as a swordsman’s weapon before it even ignites.
Premium Detailing
The V2’s grip carries deeper machining and finer finish work than the V3 — the difference is obvious in hand and in photographs.
Round Blade Versatility
The standard round blade means every effect, colour and duelling style works exactly as on our regular sabers — samurai looks, no compromises.
History of the Saber
The V2 sits between the accessible V3 and the flat-bladed V1 — the choice for collectors who want premium katana styling while keeping the versatility of a round blade.
Combat Style
Katana-style sabers reward two-handed cutting styles — long, committed strokes, fast draws and controlled follow-through. The extended grip gives leverage standard hilts can’t match.
Why Collectors Want It
A Replica Sabers original line — premium katana styling with round-blade versatility. Machined from 6063 aluminium and fully duel-ready out of the box.
