Upon reaching the rank of Rear Admiral, an Imperial Naval Officer is welcomed into what is collectively referred to as "The Admiralty". In recognition of this singular accomplishment, the promoted officer is presented with a ceremonial saber.

Officers who retire from the Imperial Navy, step down from a Command Tier position, or transfer to another branch may retain their sabers as a reminder of this achievement.

Construction

HOSTCUT.png
Admiralty Saber (Cutlass).


The most current Admiralty sabers (a cutlass design) feature aurodium plated pommel and basket, with the pommel featuring the Imperial Navy insignia, and a dyed hilt made of aged Corellian leather. The hand-crafted scabbard is made of dyed black bantha hide and fitted with two aurodium plated mounts.

The blade itself is forged utilizing the same durasteel (graded 9093-T7511) procured for the construction of Imperial Star Destroyers - and - on rare occasions - sourced directly from an active ISD. The Imperial Navy insignia is stamped on the blade just above the hilt.

Each saber is presented in a lacquered ebonwood box stamped with the Imperial insignia and the issue date.

Honorary Sabers

On rare occasions, NCOMD will present a saber to an individual who has not risen to the ranks of The Admiralty but is to be honored for some other significant merit. Often, these sabers will also include variations to the standard blade issued to new Rear Admirals.

Name Recipient Date Issued ID # Note Variation
Retribution Guinar Ndengin Year 18 Day 108 8441095 Presented in celebration of 5 years as Emperor of the Galactic Empire Blade contains the engraving "Servit Pre Selt" ("Service Before Self"). Scabbard bears a crimson strip down its length representing the Imperial Throne.

Dishonored Sabers

In the event a member, whether current or past, of the Admiralty dishonors themselves, their saber is marked as a "dishonored blade" and their names removed from the official roster. Should the asset be reclaimed by the Navy, its blade it to be broken and the pieces placed into a vault at the Navy headquarters in Kuat.
