A fibercord was a string like material that could be used to link various tools including lightsabers.

Description

Fibercord was made using durable fibers such as flexisteel, and was often used in grappling hooks and other climbing devices.[1] It was also used in conjunction with a lightsaber, to connect two paired lightsabers together. It was also used to connect a lightsaber to its wielder via their armor, or a gauntlet, which would prevent their opponent from picking it up, or using the Force to telekinetically take it.[2]

History

Asajj Ventress used a fibercord to connect her dual lightsabers. Jango Fett and Boba Fett carried a fibercord whip in their wrist gauntlets.
