RGB vs Xenopixel
RGB (baselit) sabers light the blade from a single LED in the hilt, offering a wide range of colours and solid effects at the best value, and the most impact-resistant build for duelling. Xenopixel sabers use a strip of individually-lit LEDs inside the blade for ultra-bright, uniform illumination and advanced effects. See our electronics guide and buyer’s guide. A full side by side of every board we fit, so you can choose the right saber with confidence. Still unsure? Message the workshop, we'll help you pick.

The Story of the Darth Maul Saberstaff Dueling Variant
Not every saberstaff is built for the display shelf. This dueling variant reworks Maul’s iconic double-blade into an alternate hilt tuned for contact — a cleaner, tougher grip profile and a balance made for spinning combat rather than glass-case posing. It is the Sith duelist’s weapon at its most practical, machined from 6063 aircraft-grade aluminium.
Famous Battles & Moments
Built for the Spin
Maul’s whole style is rotation — strikes flowing from both ends without pause. This alternate hilt’s grip and balance are set up for exactly that continuous, spinning dueling motion.
The Contact Weapon
Where a screen-match hilt guards its detailing, the dueling variant is built to be hit — reinforced internals and a tough polycarbonate blade at each end, ready for real sparring.
The Accessible Staff
At £100 this is the easiest way into a full double-bladed saberstaff — the Maul experience for duelists and newcomers alike, without the flagship price.
History of the Saber
This alternate hilt sits alongside our screen-matched Maul range — the Phantom Menace, Clone Wars and Rebels editions — as the practical dueling option. It keeps the double-bladed identity while trading collector detailing for combat toughness and value. Read more about the character in the official Star Wars Databank.
Combat Style
Maul fought in aggressive Juyo through a saberstaff: constant rotation, strikes and blocks from both ends, and acrobatics no single blade allows. This variant’s balance is tuned for that spinning style, and most builds split into two sabers for training.
Why Collectors Want It
It’s the duelist’s Maul — a full double-bladed saberstaff built for contact rather than the cabinet, at our most accessible staff price. It pairs naturally with our screen-matched Maul editions as the one you actually spar with. Machined from 6063 aluminium, duel-ready out of the box.
