Sith training saber

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

A Sith Training Saber was a practice weapon used by students at the Sith academy on Korriban around the time of the New Sith Wars.

The training saber had a durasteel blade with blunt edges, and was balanced to mimic real lightsabers. The blade of a training saber was covered with millions of microscopic toxin-filled barbs taken from pelko bugs that would cause burns to the skin on contact and temporarily paralyze the surrounding area to mimic the effect of losing a limb.
