- A light secondary or tertiary weapon, very easy to carry with you and use as a backup.
- Small spheres of concussive force explode on contact, potentially rupturing, and dazing their intended target.
- Facing force users, the concussive spheres explode when hit by a lightsaber or energy source.
- Can also partially deafen or damage unshielded hearing.
- A comfortable silicon grip exists for its anti-slip properties.
- Basic Iron sights for the weapon.
- Watertight for aquatic deployments.
- Mild heat resistance from the Duravlex parts and the Dallorian Alloy barrel.
- PLA-CORR Coating and Finish 50% Anti-Corr and 50% Plasteel. Offers superior resistance to weathering the natural elements, scratch resistance, and keeping a shine.
- Sonic Concussive weapons usually explode when hit by a lightsaber or any surface.
- Sonic Concussive weapons can daze, concuss, damage hearing, or deafen their target. This is a pistol, so these secondary effects potentially won't be as pronounced as a rifle.
- Lightweight, easy to carry a spare. Watertight for aquatic deployments, with some inbuilt heat resistance.
- A light, three-round burst firing weapon. It will drain its limited ammo reasonably fast. You can reload it, but given the weight, you might as well carry two.
- Another simple gun. No scope, no cooling, no aim assist or special perks. Its range is relatively limited also.
- Sonic-resistant armor of course will help negate this design.
One of the handiest weapons FFE ever produced. It's light, easy to carry, a real pain for force users to deal with. Many armors ignore sonic resistance, leading to targets being deafened or having their armor cracked. Three round bursts of small, sonic concussive spheres screech through the air as they are fired, making a distinctive and unnerving sound.
Updating the Jack Knife was a nostalgic trip for the old FFE weapon techs. Those few who had survived in this competitive and dangerous marketplace. At one time, it was one of their best-selling products. Allowing the regular men and women of the galaxy to stand a chance against heavily armored force users. Better yet, it's light even for a sidearm, meaning it can easily be carried in addition to your main weapon.
In addition to being modernized, the weapon has been updated in line with our aquatic deployment mandate, to offer a new line of weapons capable of special oceanic deployments.
There are iron sights with no scope, helping keep the weapon light and easy to fit in standard storage. Not much has changed about the design, only a modern-day refit. A new paint job and a celebratory five-year-old Corellian wine. A free gift to the first 500 customers, and every weapon tech at the End of the Line bar!
