I think Ideally there should bea weopon reward at master. Like say a Katar type weopon. Wrist blades were commonly used once by martial artists because their training allowed them to use such weopons as a ballet of death.
There could be multiple types as well. Such as a electric/stun version or even a more enlightened jedi dueler oriented version of a lightsaber wrist blade. Like a scaled down version of the Jedi's lightsaber. IF a TKA are to keep Jedi in check shouldn't they have a weopon capable of deflecting a Jedi's symbol of power?

Dear TKM Correspondant:
a suggestion, hope:
Would it be crazy to think TKMs could craft/earn 'gloves' to wear that do different aspects of damage.
Basically, for those TKMs who truly feel no want of using weapons like VKs, allowing us armor damage (light, assuming), and the capacity to adjust to certain needs for damage. These gloves should not alter our unarmed damage/speed whatsoever, just change its type(i.e. cold-based damage, heat-based, blast, electricity, stun, etc..) and ability to pierce armor; thus not taking from the VK user (VKs should still do a great deal more damage).
Not sure if we have any armor piercing ability w/o VKs equipped atm, but regardless, the chance at doing quests to enhance our diversity and 'rank' would be very rewarding. Make them un-tradeable as well,I would highly encourage that.
just a thought, various (hard to find, faction related?)TKM-trainers across the galaxy offering TKMs chances to prove themselves to learn new knowledge and gain new (not 'uber') special attacks/equipment would certainly make the game more interesting
fyi,I play a wookiee TKM, armor is not an option (though even if I wasn't wookiee, I strongly feel armor should not be an option for the TKM), thus this request.
thanks in advance, and to any positive responses or ideas added.

This is an old idea, repeated over and over, in fact it used to be a sticky in this forum. 
One problem is that us trandoshans, the only species specially suited for TK due to unarmed bonuses, can't even wear gloves.

Power Gauntlets: Large, unweildy (High HAM Cost) gauntlets that do Blast Damage.
These gauntlets would greatly amplify the kinetic energy delivered with a punch, causeing massive amounts of damage, but they are so heavy and unweildy that they drain the wearers endurance very quickly.
Just an idea...

I think we should just get one extra kind of damage, and it should be cold damage.
Why cold? Just because I can't think of any weapon in the whole game that does cold damage except the SG82 and it's underused.
Let swordsmen have their blast damage cause it makes them feel special.

I don't think people are asking for TK to not allow armor. People want TK to have an alternative to armor, like the robes that Jedi wear. Seeing some guy in composite doing acrobatics looks kinda silly you have to admit.

Some of us can't wear it (gloves or boots at least which leave holes).

thats your spiecies fault not the professions..... just beacuse some of you cant wear armor doesnt mean nerf the whole profession from wearing armor , thats just stupid, wookies got their own armor...... ask for special trando armor that doesnt leave holes but still follow the spiecies limits of no boots/ gloves.
