Tegolar sword

A tegolar sword was an edged mêlée weapon of Nausicaan design. The tegolar's blade was asymmetrical, and serrated. (TNG episode: "Tapestry")

The name "tegolar" seems to have been invented for Star Trek Online, where the weapon is an uncommon drop in ground combat. The name is similar to tegol, the Nausicaan concept for the soul. In addition, "ar" has been established in the novels as a term meaning "blood" when used in Nausicaan names; thus the name is something akin to "soul-blood".
