Electroblade training sword

An electroblade training sword was a melee training weapon used by the Jedi Order and the Sith Order during the Cold War between the Galactic Republic and the Sith Empire. Similar to vibroswords, electroblade swords were melee weapons with cylindrical blades that delivered painful shocks on contact instead of cutting or cauterizing like a normal sword or lightsabers.

Behind the scenes
Electroblade training swords first appeared in Star Wars: The Old Republic, a video game released by BioWare in 2011, and are used by Sith and Jedi classes on their starting planets; they were first named in the Codex entries for "Jedi Weapons" and "Sith Weapons."
