The all-cutting Matrix Saber (マトリクスセイバー Matorikusu Seibā), also known as the "White Matrix" (ホワイトマトリクス Howaito Matorikusu), is the vessel of the White Star Power, one of the Seven Lights of creation of the Precursor World. It is entrusted to the leader of the White Order of the Primus Vanguard. The White Matrix possesses the unique ability to convert between a more traditional Matrix form and the eponymous saber form.
Fiction
Precursor World
In the final battle between the Primus Vanguard and the Specters, White Order leader White Gallant Convoy unleashed the White Matrix's Star Power along with the other six Lights to annihilate the Specters, which had the secondary effect of combining their multiverse into a single multicolored world. When the Vanguard command convened to discuss the new threat of the Vok, Gallant presented his findings that the White Matrix had been able to track down their originating point in the future. Primus was soon driven mad by grim visions of an apocalyptic future he received from using the temporal abilities of the Black Matrix and when he demanded the White Matrix so that he might use it to destroy the universe, Gallant declined and returned to the White Planet with his Matrix. Finale Prelude
White Gallant Convoy retained the White Matrix till Halfshell came to the White Planet and took the Matrix after a fight. When God Neptune was formed, he held the White Matrix as a sword. God Neptune comic 1 God Neptune used the Saber to effortlessly parry the Matrix Sword thrust of the hapless Straxus in the ensuing battle for the seven remaining Matrices of Star Power. To their combined shock, the ghost of Blue Big Convoy emerged from the Matrix Sword, confiscated the Matrix Buster, and relieved God Neptune of the Matrix Saber with a mighty blast. The victorious Megatron Omega subsequently retrieved the Matrix Saber in its traditional Matrix configuration as well as the other matrices stolen by the Seacons and began to absorb their Star Power into his own Silver Matrix, only for a vengeful Halfshell to split his head open with the Neptune Sword, interrupting the process and sending the White Matrix flying.

- Note that the clear-plastic-on-clear-plastic hinge in the middle of the blade stresses rapidly with repeated transformation due to the pressure leveraged onto the free-standing side of the clip when traveling from Matrix mode to Saber mode. As such, the user is advised to pick one mode and keep the Matrix there.
