Well actually a force-pike is a spear version of the vibro-axe that jabba's
"warthog looking" Gamorean gaurds carry. The tip or blade depening on which
your using virbrates about 1000 times a second. This makes the weapons able to
easily puncture armored troops, doors, walls, etc. Some Royal gaurds in the
comics have double ended force pikes whose blades retract into the hit. They
look like Dauth Mauls saber-staff but obviously the blades are shorter and fit
into the hilt. A lightsaber hilt and two screw drivers work very well for
making that weapon out of Lego. Cool.
