Description: As a fighter and assassin who relies on speed and precision, Asajj's perfect weapon was obviously going to be something light and compact. With this in mind she put together a folding blade. Made with Phrik to be lightsaber resistant, it has a mechanism within the blade that allows it to fold twice within itself back into the handle. The action is quick and relatively silent, yet takes some of the structural strength out of it. However, she makes up for this weakness by aiming to only use the blade to glance strikes, not block them straight on. Because of the design choices, it is lightweight, short and silent; perfect for an assassin.
