The lightsaber,
is indeed an "elegant weapon", a powerful
image combining the magic sword, light, fire, and
energy. It is a laser; blocking another saber, it
is light made solid, a remarkable concept. The sword,
the active solar weapon of the hero-knight, has long
been regarded as magical in itself, often having a
name and a persona of its own in folklore and in such
modern writers of traditionalist fiction as Tolkien,
Bradley, and Moorcock.

of Luke Skywalker's lightsaber, fully authorized and

an obstacle. Measures 44.3"
