• Cuts Like Butter: High-frequency vibrations emanating from the ultrasonic generator increase the blade's cutting ability, enabling it to cut through some metals.
• Lightsaber Resistant: The phrik blade can deactivate a lightsaber upon sustaining a direct blow.

• Battery Operated: Ultrasonic generators rely on power cells, which must be replaced when expended and are susceptible to EMP/ION damage.
• Expensive: Though planets with phrik deposits are near Confederate space, the material is nonetheless very rare and cumbersome to refine.

Warfare with Force users has become commonplace by 900 ABY, and as such, the necessity for units and equipment that can withstand combat with them is ever increasing. The rediscovery of phrik mines on Tatooine and Gromas has reignited an interest in developing lightsaber-resistant weaponry among weaponsmiths in the Confederacy. Inspired by Baktoid's phrik electrostaves, Escharum Risk Control has introduced the phrik Commando Droid Vibrosword.

The sword's ultrasonic generator creates high-frequency vibrations that significantly improve the blade's lethality and cutting ability. Being forged from phrik enables the blade to not only withstand direct contact with lightsabers, but can also cause them to disengage entirely, leaving Force users vulnerable to attack. This property exists innately in the metal, with or without the generator.
