Let me just Sabre the thought

Celebrating the forthcoming release of Star wars episode III - Revenge of the sith, Play.com are selling a replica light sabre for £99.99. There is a Luke Skywalker replica sabre, and a Darth vader one, which looks much better. And it comes with its own custom made stand.

How good is that? And for an explanation of how it works and how to use it safely i came across this site which explains all.

It shows what it can do, and what it could be used for. I wander if it can be used as a badminton racket! Whatever the use, it would be a brilliant self-defence tool. Who wants to get one, and duel with me??? Who can think of a good use for it? Who has any ideas, on how they would use it.
