VIDEO: Prowse suiting up as Vader, 1976

Does anyone know what lightsaber that is, that's being discussed in the second clip? It looks like a half Graflex, half Kobold?

Most likely some dueling stunt.

I think there are a few that have already pieced that one together, mine only needs. A lick of paint at the top :)

Silver -UNmodified- Kobold flash unit (D-ring added), shoven into a Graflex top (no glass-eye, no red button), partially painted.
A couple of these builds surfaced already, yes :)
 
We now know they did this for the scene where luke lost his hand, jamming a Kobold into a graflex.

This specific stunt with the black top has only been seen in that shot I think, it might have been a back-up stunt, used to cast the stunt they threw at Luke in ROTJ or a promo piece.
