Pulse-wave bow

Pulse-wave bow's where pulse-wave based weapons used by krath war droids circa 4,000 BBY.

Designed to be used in concert with a standard issue short sword, the pulse-wave bow was used primarily for long range attacks when cutting and thrusting with a sword was out of the question. The bow itself was a curving one and a half meter edged spar, lined with a series of four Pulse-wave induction spines, two on the outer curve, and two on the inner curve. Designed to be gripped in the center, the bow was designed to funnel, contain, and then discharge energy but scant inches from the wielders hands.

Due to the bows edged nature and pointed tips, the bow was often used as a backup melee weapon when needed.
