The lightsaber is a sword with a column of brightly colored energy in the place of a metal blade. Its hilt is a polished metal grip that can project a blade about one meter long.
The blade cuts through most substances without resistance, leaving cauterized wounds , and it can be wielded as either one-handed or two-handed weapon.
An active lightsaber gives off a distinctive hum, which rises in pitch and volume as the blade is moved rapidly through the air, and bringing the blade into contact with an object or another lightsaber blade produces a loud crackle.
The lightsaber is the weapon of the Jedi and the Sith.
Lightsabers are typically hand-built as part of a Jedi's or Sith's training and so are as unique to its builder.
