The failsafe seems to be rarely used, or was only included in a variant of Energy Sword issued to the Covenant ground forces deployed to Installation 04 by the Fleet of Particular Justice. The failsafe is included to prevent enemy infantry from acquiring the weapon and using it, and is yet another insight to Sangheili tactics. The energy then consumes the handle and thus destroys the weapon. When dropped, the failsafe engages by deactivating the magnetic field before dispersing the energy. The Type-1 Energy Weapon contains a failsafe mechanism witnessed during the Battle of Installation 04 that can permanently disable the weapon if the Sangheili wielding it drops it. The Halo 2 version has multiple symbols that yet are unknown to be Forerunner. The hilt of the sword ( Halo 3) displays multiple Forerunner symbols. Once the battery power is fully depleted, the sword will deactivate unless recharged, something players couldn't do until Halo Infinite.

The actual blade is composed of two partially ionized 'blades' of free moving electron based gas held in a blade-like form by two small magnetic-field generators built into the handle of the weapon. The Type-1 Energy Weapon/Sword consists of a curved hilt, housing an energy storage module and a device for projecting the plasma which forms the blade.

In service to the Covenant, Sangheili of a high or important rank are permitted to wield this weapon - lower ranks are not permitted to wield the sword because of its high status. Breeding with any female they choose is permitted, married or otherwise, to ensure successful transmission of "swordsman" genes. The Sangheili are also very strict on who can be trained in the art of swordsmanship - only aristocrats are permitted to wield Energy Swords, and sword wielders are no longer eligible for marriage. They believe that it is better for a Sangheili to fall on his sword as an act to redeem his honor. Viewed as a holy weapon, the Sangheili pride themselves on their skills with it. The Energy Sword is the signature weapon of the Sangheili, and has been their weapon of nobility since its creation during one of their Ages of Discovery. 3.6 Changes from Halo 5: Guardians to Halo Infinite.3.5 Changes from Halo 4 to Halo 5: Guardians.3.1 Changes from Halo: Combat Evolved to Halo 2.
