After its destruction on Geonosis, he had to forge a new one, which was eventually passed down to Luke. Maul's lightsaber kept his enemies off balance by featuring two red crystals, combined with grips and switches that allowed the weapon to become two separate blades if needed.Īnakin Skywalker's first known lightsaber only lasted during his Padawan years up until the battle of Geonosis.
The zabrak Sith used a dual-bladed lightsaber (sometimes known as a saberstaff) that was designed to be wielded more like a polearm than a traditional blade. It has a black and silver hilt with a segmented shroud that guided the blade from a blue crystal. Obi-Wan's lightsaber was more slightly complex in design than his master's, but clearly took inspiration from it, as was common for Padawans. The hilt featured a single red activation button and a black deep-grooved body with a silver trim.
Master Qui-Gon Jinn used a very simplistic single-bladed lightsaber with a green kyber crystal. Here are almost all the known hilts shown in the films, not including ones that weren't shown for very long (such as on Geonosis) or have no known pictures. Every Jedi and Sith, at some point, had to construct their lightsaber.
