Rass

Rass were a species of predators native to the planet of Sakiya in the Saki system of Hutt Space. They possessed hard bones that were a pebbled black in color and used by the sentient Sakiyan species, who were also native to the rass' homeworld, to make the handles for bladed weapons. The Sakiyan Admiral Tarnese Bleyd who served the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars owned a knife with a handle made of rass bone, and considered the blade among his favorites.
