The saber was able to be split into two separate blades with the ringed emitter retracting at the sides so the hilt can extend and split apart.
Background: Third Sister’s lightsaber was a lightsaber wielded by the Jedi hunter known as the Third Sister, also known as Reva, during her service to the Galactic Empire. It was similar in appearance to other double-bladed spinning lightsabers wielded by Imperial Inquisitors. As the hunt for Obi-Wan Kenobi came to an end, Reva would lay down her lightsaber, seeking to turn her back on the dark side of the Force.
While many Inquisitors carried their lightsabers on their backs, the Third Sister kept hers hang on her right side. The saber was able to be split into two separate blades with the ringed emitter retracting at the sides so the hilt can extend and split apart. This allowed Reva to utilize her Jar’Kai skills, which she perfected under the Grand Inquisitor’s tutelage. The saber’s kyber crystals once belonged to a Jedi who was killed during the Great Jedi Purge and were bled by Reva herself.
