That one and the one from when he jumps from barge to barge have bent emitters so i guess its resin or rubber.

It may be resin or rubber. I forgot that the nipple on the Shared Stunt emitter was removed before it left the UK.

The emitter could also be bent in those pics because it was a separate piece on the Shared Stunt and V2 (the skinny neck under the emitter is wrapped in tape).

Is there any chance it could be a lightweight wooden hilt? Am I right in thinking the masters for the V2 and stunts were wooden? The picture of him scrabbling up the side of the barge, the forward rings and neck look like duffed up scratched flakey painted wood to me.
 
As far as I'm concerned it was copper too. If it were brass I feel like it wouldn't contrast as much with the environment they were filming in.

That "Barge Climbing saber" While having the details of a graflex clamp, It looks to be all one solid piece. I do believe it was a cast of something with a nipple and a graflex clamp. I can't for the life of me explain the terrible paint job - considering the black on the emitter, grip and "booster" section, this could be a cast from late ANH era.
