Well its pretty logical to assume that they're vents and the light sabre does sound kind of ragged.
When Palpatine fell down a well and Vader croaked, the only real trained force user out there was Luke, and if he decided not to train Jedi, then there was nobody around to train people on making things like a Saber.
If he found Vader's mask, it shouldn't have been hard to find Vader weapon and attempt to copy it or use components from it.
I do think its weird to have a broad sword weapon as a Lightsaber, as Kenobi described them as an elegant blade from an elegant time. A broadsword is not designed to be elegant, its designed to be swung hard repeatedly or jammed into the victims gut. Its one of the least elegant weapons out there.
Edit, it could also be that those vents are more for intimidation then anything else.
