Tera Sinube ' s sabercane Tera Sinube ' s sabercane was a specialized mobility aid that also served the Cosian Jedi Master Tera Sinube as a lightsaber in situations where armed combat was the necessary course of action . Designed to be as much of a weapon as a reinforcement for his gnarled frame , Sinube only exposed the duplicity of his sabercane when the handle and collar were separated from the shaft to produce a light blue beam of plasma . Sinube used his sabercane during the Clone Wars , a conflict that pitted the Republic against the Separatists , when he wielded it to great effect against the thieving Terrelian Jango Jumper Cassie Cryar . Description . Due to his age , Jedi Master Tera Sinube utilized a sabercane , a specialized device that was both a crutch and a lightsaber in one . The handle of Sinube ' s sabercane was T - shaped , and along with the collar , was made of wood from his homeworld . The activation stud for the sabercane ' s light blue energy portion was installed in the handle , and the intricately carved collar connected to a shaft that finished with an enlarged ferrule , the size of which provided increased stability and support for the aged Cosian as he moved about . The rounded ferrule had a flat bottom and four symmetrically placed protrusions to further supplement its owner ' s stability . In its completed form , the sabercane was roughly half the height of Master Sinube . As Jedi Masters advanced in age and became less able to sustain themselves physically , they made use of devices to help lessen the burden on their bodies . In situations where a peaceful approach was less practical and therefore required more aggressive negotiations , some elderly Jedi chose to imbue their walking sticks with the power of the Force , while others abandoned them entirely in favor of lightsabers . Master Sinube , however , fought with both his cane and lightsaber , as they were one and the same . He surprised his opponents , who attacked Sinube as though he was unarmed , by separating the lightsaber from his cane and wielding both parts in concert , with the lightsaber in place as the bladed weapon while the ferrule at the end of the shaft — which Sinube brandished in a reverse grip — served as an effective bludgeon . History . Around 21 BBY , Jedi investigator Tera Sinube utilized his sabercane while on a quest to find the missing lightsaber of Jedi Padawan Ahsoka Tano . The two Jedi traversed the lower levels of the galactic capital world of Coruscant and eventually found the Terrelian Jango Jumper Cassie Cryar in possession of Tano ' s weapon . They were forced to give chase and were able to eventually corner Cryar on a train . When Cryar attempted to attack Sinube with Tano ' s lightsaber , the Cosian Jedi Master separated the shaft from the handle and collar , from which he then produced his lightsaber blade . Wielding shaft and saber in either hand , Sinube proceeded to battle Cryar with both parts , parrying several of her ripostes with his lightsaber before using the cane extension like a cudgel and striking Cryar in the head with it . The Jedi then retrieved the lightsaber from Cryar , letting the unconscious thief get arrested by the police droids . Later in the Clone Wars , a conflict that divided the galaxy in warfare between the Galactic Republic and the Separatist Alliance , Sinube was overseeing a group of younglings training in the courtyard of the Jedi Temple when Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker and Padawan Barriss Offee ' s duel spilled out of the Temple corridors . Sinube drew his sabercane in defense of the younglings and watched as Skywalker subdued the Dark Jedi . Behind the scenes .
