Opened up the old model, didn't really like it anymore so I re-worked it.

So what the hell is this thing made of anyway, does it ever say? Stone, something organic, Styrofoam, secreted resin, fossilized material? It might help me to make a convincing model, I used to think it was make of a coral like material. Or maybe a piece of dead cholla cactus.

And is the design one to cut down on the competition of who had the cooler lightsaber, because now they all look the same?

Ugh, still no sign of land, how long is it?

Ahhh yes, I finally came across that at some point. I really like the concept they came up with.

I find it weird that it looks like a tree branch. Almost like they respect life and use a piece of wood as a symbol of it. I mean obviously they don't but it looks like it with that saber hilt!

Yeah it sort of has that reverse feel to it. Has a bizarre paradox aura. But in their minds I'm sure that's exactly what they think.

According to the Star Wars: The New Essential Guide to Weapons and Technology(Del Rey's Books).
It was elongated and notched with crisscrossing grooves. The hilt was constructed of a material that physically did not appear to be metal and instead, like the majority of the One Sith's lightsabers, appeared to be constructed of Yorik coral.
Yorik coral was the primary shipbuilding material of the Yuuzhan Vong. It was grown on-planet in the form of a ship, and later symbiotic creatures were implanted or grown within it to perform the ship's functions. It would absorb the material it was grown on (rock, unrefined ores, or occasionally wreckage of enemy bunkers or buildings) but also required organic material. In a completed ship, the yorik coral was run through with the nervous system that controlled and coordinated the various biots, as well as a circulatory system that sustained them. Thus, if the yorik coral of a ship sustained enough damage, it would cut off control and sustenance to all of the various subsystems, resulting in loss of efficiency and then total failure. The handle of Darth Talon's and Darth Nihl's Long-handle lightsaber was said to be made out of Yorik coral.
Yorik coral was also used to create missiles used in planetary bombardment.
