Pommel cap

Canon Legends version → Linked from 20 articles

A pommel cap was a knob-like, enlarged fitting at the top of certain lightsabers' hilts. They could include a ring so the weapon could be hooked on its wielder's belt when not in use, or store small items of necessity, such as backup power cells. The reinforcement provided by the pommel cap made pommel strikes with a lightsaber more effective and less likely to damage the hilt itself.

The first, second, and third lightsabers of Obi-Wan Kenobi all featured one such cap, and so did Luke Skywalker's green lightsaber.
