A fibercord was a string like material that could be used to link various tools including lightsabers.
Description[]
Fibercord was made using durable fibers such as flexisteel, and was often used in grappling hooks and other climbing devices.[1] It was also used in conjunction with a lightsaber, to connect two paired lightsabers together. It was also used to connect a lightsaber to its wielder via their armor, or a gauntlet, which would prevent their opponent from picking it up, or using the Force to telekinetically take it.[2]
History[]
Asajj Ventress used a fibercord to connect her dual lightsabers. Jango Fett and Boba Fett carried a fibercord whip in their wrist gauntlets.
