Topic: Laser Sword Sound Effects

For a project I'm going to make, I have a character wielding a laser sword, somewhat like a lightsaber from Star Wars. It's a little bit of a parody. For all of my films I only use sound effects I've recorded myself, and I want it to sound different from a lightsaber. So does anyone know of a good method I could use to make laser sword sounds?

Could you make it with your mouth?

I've tried some stuff with my mouth and kazoos with changing pitches, them speeding it up a whole lot, then just a little but down, but that doesn't work. It usually works marvelously for lasers. Just not laser swords. mini/tongue

Download the lightsaber sounds from FXHome and import the them into Audacity and change the pitch or something.

Read the text.  You'll know where to find your sources.

Start around 2:30 to get some info on how it is made.

FXHome's version is...meh.
