I have wanted this since I first saw it in Ahsoka ep. 2 and am trying to gather reference material, but it seems rather sparse.
I have not seen any evidence this prop has shown up at conventions, and there does not seem to be an Ahsoka art/prop book that I can check for reference material.
I stumbled on one photo that shows the prop in an Easter egg post from starwars.com.
Has anyone stumbled across any additional reference material?
---------------------------------
This is what I have so far:
From the series, I am pretty sure it is a hidden tang blade, with a broken scale.
These two show what i believe to be a broken scale around the butt, and you can see a border of handle scale, so hidden tang.
No tang visible on top
Blade beveled on both sides, slope on back top of vibro component.
Appears to be a straight back with recurve blade.
Outside the reference in ep. 2, so far I have been able to gather:
It previously belonged to Kanan Jarrus, so there is brief animated reference in Rebels "Jedi Night."
There is probably more usable reference in Ahsoka though, so not particularly helpful.
The Inside Ahsoka Easter egg post gives the only photo of the prop I have been able to find, but it is not featured, just the paint sprayer and hair clip.
The broken scale would be facing down in this photo if I am correct about that.
It does help greatly with the bottom and front of the vibro component and handle contour. There appears to be no choil and probably no ricasso on the blade.
In the series, the handle looks walnut, but there is strong yellow lighting in that scene. Here it looks much darker.

The Easter egg video uses the same photo as above, but while Wookiepedia identifies it as simply a knife, the Easter egg video identifies it as a vibroblade.
I had just assumed it was from the context and blade greeblies, so when I saw the Wookiepedia entry I thought I was missing something.
