In the early days of forming the Galactic Foreign Legion Noah began to mull over the idea of crafting a custom both commemorative and practical weapon to award legionnaires after completing their training. In the end Noah decided to go with this idea and sought to crafting the weapon. He went with a few ideas before deciding on something he had experience with during his time in the commandos: a fighting knife.
It was this in mind that Noah designed the knife for the Legion to be almost a carbon copy of the same type he earned during his time in the commandos. Having the basic design already in his head, and in a display case in his personal study, he got to work on choosing the materials. He choose Duranium for the blade for its durability, light weight and ability to keep an edge, he then plated the blade with Cortosis Weave to give it an edge against lightsabers. He made the hilt of it out of Plastoid for its similar qualities to the blade construction. Lastly he crafted the sheath out of Corellian Leather for a bit of finery.
With the basic design out of the way Noah began to add the features into the knife that would make it more effective. The first was a double edged blade, giving the knife the advantage of being able to cut from either edge and therefore making it much more fluid in use. As with every vibroweapon a ultrasonic vibration generator was installed to make it well a vibroknife. A pommel spike added in allows for a quick stunning strike with the pommel in the case that you don't want to kill your target. He textured the hilt to allow for a better grip in adverse conditions and lastly made the sheath self-sharpening so that the knife always holds its edge.
Noah himself constructed the first batch of knives, giving the first to Delila Castillon as a gift, and once the first batch was done he gave the blueprints to his company to produce anymore. As a playful jab towards his friend he also named the knife after her.
