KNIGHTING CEREMONY
Lightsaber combat was the base point for a Jedi in the (traditional) Trial of Skill. To pass as a Jedi Knight, a Padawan must show the following:
• They must know all the forms (not to perform), all the maneuvers, marks of contact etc (and perform these) of basic lightsaber combat.
• They must be able to perform basic Shii-Cho [Form I lightsaber style]
• They must show they can use the Force to aid their combat
• They must go through a series of obstacles, often devised by the master for a personal-course designed to test the Jedi's weaknesses and skills using the Force, their skills and prowess, and their lightsaber.
• They must prove themselves worthy by proving in combat that they know at least 1 main form to a very advanced degree and tested to a Jedi standard in a variety of ways and show that they have the skill.
• Must be able to use Saber throw efficiently and effectively.
Details on the New Jedi Order version of the knighting ceremony to come later... some other time.
