Electric Swords are swords...with electricity:



The Electric Swords are any normal sword, but its actions are like a lightsaber. Although it doesn't have contact with the Cross Guard:



Now the Pommel at the end of the sword is not just for design, it also show what type is your ranking in the army:



Now, if the sword is close, it looks like this:



Also, that the Cross Guard "cuts" itself into three pieces:



And this is how it looks when it is half close:

*jumps for joy* do you mind if I use your name in my book? He is a general, and I don't have a name for him yet.

So when it turns on, it projects a field of electricity...but there has to be something to focus it into a 'blade' shape, right?

Well, usually the government creates the exact amount for the generals, majors, etc. but, yes they can be also found in the black market.

Well, if this answers your question, the two studs near the Cross Guard are the ones that shoot up the electricity.

So this is why you sleep so late each night! o.O ;) :rofl:

Is it only the army that has swords like this? How is the electricity "charged"?

Well, yes, but if you buy in the black market it the army would never know. And the ones who buy sword by bulk, are usually part of the rebels.

They take off the pommel, then put in a rather Sci-Fi battery in it.

What makes the electrical field stop? Does it gradually fade out, or is a definitive end? And if it is definitive, what stops it?

Well, the swords have names, if you say it's name it will open and the blade will appear, but if it is the other way around the blade will disappear.

Um, I didn't get that question exactly.
