Darwin calls it natural selection... they're naturally missing a few brain cells and they do things like that.

So sure, are you?
Anyways, in response to Treach's last post of page 2:
You don't need to worry about lumens because it's the UV light you are after to make the phosphorous fluoresce; you can't see UV light, which is why it's called UV in the first place. It will have a similar rating as the Royal Blue LEDs at any rate, measured in mW as opposed to lumens.
I hope this project bears some fruit. I want to construct a UV saber for myself (I want the blue-purple glow first, brightness second), so I'm interested.
The idea would be really interesting,depending on how efficient is the result.
If it has too much energy lost it won't be efficient enough for a long last use with standart batteries.
If it can have same autonomy as a 3w luxeon led,or a led string 1 A blade,can be very interesting,because the visual result will be very better.
LED string?
hmm...
Here's an idea, stuff that powder into a foam diffuser, and use a UV LED string!
The powder should be easier to apply to spongy foam than it would to flmsy cellophane...
Plus, with the foam being as spongy as it is, you dont have to worry about flaking!
(If you use a non-hardening adhesive, that is...)

It may be possible to obtain a "large specter" led,tat emits visible light,and some UV too.
Visible light is used,and unvisible light is converted to visible light,maybe another color(led white and green or blue fluorescent)
