Songsteel was an extraordinarily light and luminescent silver metal, used in masterwork swords and staves. The metal was reserved only for the most exquisite of weapons, and was extremely tedious to forge and shape. Songsteel was highly resistant to lightsaber strikes in a manner similar to phrik and cortosis, as shown by Jedi Master Darrus Jeht who wielded a songsteel sword in a practice lightsaber duel against the Jedi Masters Lanius Qel-Bertuk and Devan For'deschel.^[1], successfully deflecting and blocking their combined lightsaber attacks with his own Songsteel blade.

The Master in Violet owned a fighting staff that had been made from a songsteel shard, and she fought with the weapon when the Five Masters Academy fell under attack from an unidentified opponent.^[2]

During the Confederation Rock Rush, the Heroes of Cularin discovered desposits of songsteel on an asteroid in the Cularin system asteroid belt.^[3]
