I thought that too at first-- but...

...box rails are totally different.
Damn Seth good eyes!! I’m stuck on a small screen right now!
So... white glove saber built from scratch... why can’t the damn creators of these fill us in a little, you know they come on here and see this stuff...
I would love to know the history and design of this..
With Disney doing all kinds of damage control social media wise, someone tweet Rian Johnson saying we want a weapons video, they did it for r1 have them do it for TLJ
But back to the box, Seth, what the hell is up with those rails?!
Another thing Seth, you know how we all think it would be easy to use bladed sabers for the hut scene?
The angle the camera is at allows for easy cg work on throwing in the blades
Any other angle would be too difficult to cg in blades with out a reference in place (rod)
Just like how fake punches are filmed, they look perfect at one angle, watch the scene from another and the fist is a foot away from the guy. They can pull off this same trick with the lightsaber blades this way
I’ve been going by this theory since everyone thinking they NEEDED a blades stunt for that scene
I feel real strongly the white glove saber (resin stun) is the creepy uncle, and that is why the creepy uncle has so much CG work done to it...
