Welcome to the party.

VERY nice choice for your first saber, you're going to be very happy with it. 

And 18 days with all the orders they're getting these days is a nice turn around time.  Just wait until everything settles down.  At one point early last year, before the holidays, conventions, and movie excitement, they were shipping orders same day/next day from when you ordered it. :o ;D

If you have any questions about anything, always feel free to ask.

Welcome to the forum :) I'm confident you'll be pleased with your Dark Initiate; That shape of hilt is always very popular with the people who buy one!

Ooooh a very nice Saber to start with, such a beautiful hilt. I like that you went with the catalyst pommel too :D

Arrived yesterday and it definitely is beautiful! The catalyst pommel gives it that little bit of extra grip length that I felt I was going to need.
So easy to spin this thing, although with the weather outside atm I have to be careful not to lay waste to half the house!
Also can't decide whether I prefer the ultraedge or midgrade blades, they both look so good in their own ways... either way I'm a very happy man!  ;D

Welcome to the forums!
 My son has this exact saber as well. We both think that the midgrade blades look the best (In our opinion) and have decided to order them on all future sabers. I 'd say get one of each so you can choose the one you like best.

Nice, I actually have a few midgrade's as well as the ultra edge, love them both, and the saber itself is fantastic!

Ordered on the 14th of January and it was at my door 10am on the 1st of February.

18 days from ordering to delivery is fantastic considering it had to travel 4,500 miles to get to me. It actually went to Paris before it got to Ireland so it's better travelled than I am!  ;D

What did you order?

I know they're out the door with orders given all the hype over the new film, but trust me it'll be worth it when it arrives!

The other saber companies take 8-20 weeks to manufacture so comparably US are ridiculously fast for the quality you get. I haven't dropped mine yet or had a chance to duel with it, but I know when I do it'll keep on ticking.

Very cool, considering that for my next purchase, really cool take on Anakin's Ep II saber!

This review shows it off really well:

Yeah the V4 was sold out so I went with the V3 and I'm really glad I did.

Hopefully it won't take too much longer, but as I said totally worth the wait!
