A vibro-ax,[1] or vibro-axe,[6] was a type of ax that used a compact generator to create vibrations along the cutting edge's surface, which significantly increased the weapon's lethality.[1] There existed one-handed[4] and two-handed models.[5] Similar vibration-based technology could be found in vibro-blades, vibro-knives,[6] vibro-pikes,[7] and vibro-lances.[8]
Vibro-axes were wielded by many thugs across the galaxy. The pig-like Gamorreans, for example, often used them.[1] During the Galactic Civil War, some of those boar mercenaries favored a particular model of vibro-ax known as Arg'garok[9]
