Admiralty Sabers
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

| |
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.
