An alchemically altered blade attached to an ordinary sword hilt, the Sith sword was often a match for a lightsaber when wielded by a trained Sith warrior. The alterations allow the blade to deflect blaster bolts and lightsabers, just as lightsabers themselves do. The blade also focuses the Force energy of the user, giving the edge an unnatural sharpness. As the wielder grows more powerful proficient in the power of the dark side, the blade becomes more deadly.
Era Notes: During the Golden Age of the Sith, these weapons were only available in areas of space controlled by the Sith. After this time, they become available in the rest of the galaxy as rarely seen relics of a dead civilization.
