Lanuarok

The Sith lanvarok is a short-range weapon worn on the forearm and designed to hurl a flurry of thin but solid disks in an unpredictable "spray" pattern. Though the weapon is time-consuming to reload, the surprise factor of a sudden hail of whirling projectiles often leaves an opponent completely unprepared for the Sith's follow-up attack.

Coupled with the Sith's ability to wield the Force to guide the disks to their target, the lanvarok is an extremely effective weapon. Reloading the lanvarok requires quite a bit of strength.The weapon is specifically designed for either the right or left forearm. Any given lanvarok is not interchangeable from right to left.

According to Sith legend, the lanvarok was developed by the ancient Sith as a hunting weapon. Details of its construction can be found in Sith holocrons. The mutated Massassi of Yavin 4 used a more primitive version of this weapon, a two-handed polearm that required brute strength rather than mechanical action or the Force to launch the disks. After its disks are launched, the polearm itself could be used as a slashing weapon.
