A person certainly does not need to be a fan of the Star Wars movies to know what a Lightsaber is or even be interested in getting their hands on one of them for themselves. One of the most coveted, deadliest, and most colorful weapons originating from a galaxy far, far away does not cost a Jedi anything but a few scrap parts and some Kyber crystals to give the power blade its energy and distant look, but would normally cost us present day Earthlings a little more than pretty penny. However, that is not so much the case on Black Friday 2023 and we promise that this is NOT a trap.
