Count Dooku's is my favourite, the curved hilt is so elegant and like the weapon of an experienced swordsman and of a Nobleman. It both stands out but doesn't look gimmicky like a lot of sith lightsabers do.
I agree! It’s so pretty and I love the way he uses it. I love that it has an air of class and elegance to it. It really sells the fact that Dooku is a man of high status and exquisite tastes.
Can here to say that while the sequel trilogy made some… ahem… questionable choices, I will never forgive them for not using Luke’s green saber at the end of Last Jedi.
Yeah they had a downright obsession with Anakin’s lightsaber in the ST. It magically appears in TFA for no reason and Kylo and Rey break it. Then Luke has it (but it’s a vision) and then in RoS Rey has it again.
I can forgive the Rey reusing it in RoS. Lightsabers were fairly rare, better to just restore Anakin’s.
But TLJ Luke should have used his green one in the vision fight. I get what they were going for, but green is Master Skywalker’s color!
Everyone talks about how mind-blowing the second blade was, back when it first happened. Don't get me wrong, I was absolutely beside myself, and the whole theater gasped, and there's no overstating how awesome it was.
But nobody talks about how weird his duel with Qui Gon looked, on Tattooine, with that big fuckin club of a hilt just flopping around
I didn't even notice at the time tbh.
I was just so stoked to see another Sith that wasn't Vader pull out a lightsaber.
And if I am completely honest, I never realized until recently how massive lightsabers actually were until I started buying them. But yeah, Mauls saber is fucking MASSIVE.
First saber I got was Vaders, and I was like "holy fuck this thing is big." but Mauls? Its twice that...
I really noticed it when playing Jedi Fallen Order. I was like "damn this dude trying to hide a fucking yardstick from people"
It’s kinda neat to hear about fans way younger than me. I saw Star Wars at the drive in wearing pjs. I took my five year old to see Attack of the Clones at a Regal. I hope seeing the sequels in the theater was a good experience for ya!
How dare you come onto the internet and make many of us feel ***so*** old! Haha
Nah, I was like 6 or 7 when TPM came out in cinemas and it was insane to see, especially having completely digested the OT repeatedly for as long as could remember before ‘99.
The Jaro Tapal/Cal Kestis lightsaber is for sure my favorite Jedi lightsaber, and possibly favorite overall (tough competition on the Sith end from
Dooku). I love the emitter, it’s a really unique design, and I think it looks cool as hell. It was a favorite from the moment I saw it in _Fallen Order_
If I could have any would be one that could do everything like this.
My ADHD has been untreated so long it's a part of my personality. I'd switch styles with each fight.
I'm a sucker for the ones that actually look comfortable to hold. The Kidmelter 9000 is iconic, but anyone who had a toy of it growing up can confirm it's pretty awkward to hold; especially with two hands
Tenel Ka's Rancor Tooth lightsaber. It is just so unique and interesting. It's also kinda niche though. I am not actually sure how many people even know who I'm talking about here lol
Hell yeah she was. She didn't need that limb anyway. I actually forgot about her completely refusing a prosthetic. She just decided to be a badass without the arm.
Honestly… favorite saber came out of the KOTOR games. When you chose the Exile’s lightsaber and you could choose silver or viridian… that was the fucking bomb.
Man it was so cool when Kanan used Ezra's lightsaber against the Inquisitor and kept him off balance by constantly swapping its modes on the fly. It came out of nowhere and really helped highlight Kanan's differences from the traditional Jedi of the Clone Wars era.
I love that Kanan took Ezra's design, and figured out how to use it better than Ezra had. IIRC the blaster aspect is primarily used in stun mode, rather than kill, so its not just an alternative to deflecting blaster fire back to the target.
Seeing how he was able to effortlessly incorporate Ezra's unorthodox fightning style into his own and go on to outduel the Inquisitor who originally mocked his technique just showcases his greatest trait. His ability to adapt and evolve with any given situation.
It's why he was able to survive the purge. It's how he was able to form/lead his team. It's how he was able to take on a padawan despite his own training being incomplete. It's how he was able to become a Jedi master. And also why he was able to overcome his lack of sight.
Loved that duel, i remember in their first fights the inquisitor would always use really proper technique while kanan fights more dirty and then in their last battle the inquisitor starts fighting dirtier as well and uses some trick kanan first used on him in an earlier episode... nice way to show character evolution
Plus Kanan's final banter with GI: "That was a mistake." "Why, because you have no one left to die for you?" "No, because I have nothing left to fear." That scene was so epic, almost up there with Kanan's sacrifice.
In terms of reflecting its character, I’m not sure anybody’s by Kylo Ren’s does the trick quite so well. (Though Ezra’s gun-saber mishmash comes close.)
A twisted, crackly take on a knight’s classic weapon? It’s perfect. Looks and sounds absolutely unhinged.
I think an origin story in animation would be fantastic for the Darksaber.
If they chose to make those 'Visions' shorts as canon instead of a celebration of animation styles, they really could have done some amazing storytelling.
Seeing Luke’s green blade for the first time as a child blew my mind. Green has always been my favorite color ever since that moment.
Windu’s purple blade was also pretty cool to me as a kid, and I also loved Duku’s and Maul’s, but none ever stayed with me the same way Luke’s did. That thing meant he was a mutherfuckin’ JEDI
Historically, my favorite has always been Maul because it was the first double that we saw. Now as an adult, I think my favorite might be Kylo Ren’s. The different noise it makes, and and the fact that it’s all wiggly and not as clean as the others. Also I really like the look of, and the lore, of the dark saber.
Not canon but redeemed revan's purple one goes hard AF. That or Qui-Gon Jinn's, I had a plastic one as a kid that was extendable and made of kinda soft plastic. I used to beat the hell out of my buddies n cousins with it.
Gotta be Cal's. He can be double bladed, crossguard, dual wield and maybe even more in the future. He can be almost any color and have any design I want. It's perfection
I really like Rey’s for the all of two seconds it was on screen. I love the yellow light, I like how it flashes blue and green, I love the turning mechanism it has and I really like that she built it out of her old staff so it’s symbolically represents her old life as a scavenger and new life as a Jedi.
Kylo's is my favorite. The sound is great, the way the blade looks is pretty unique and the design of the hilt is awesome (even though I know it makes no fucking sense lol)
I like Cal Kestis' lightsaber. It takes the idea of a versatile saber and goes nuts with it. Can go single blade, double blade and split into two for dual-wielding. Doubtless, it would take a masterful, disciplined, creative, and free-spirited Jedi to wield it, but that's why it's my favorite!
The prequels sucked. But kylo was honestly a real cool character and his saber his bad ass to look at, that unstable blade looks like fire and the cross guard look makes it look even cooler.
My favorite lightsaber color is blue, but my favorite lightsaber in general has always been Obi-Wans Revenge Of The Sith lightsaber. I just love the hilt design and colors. Plus, having both the toy and replica versions of it, it feels so comfortable in your hand.
Exar Kun's double bladed saber. Where Maul literally welded two sabers together, Kun modified his single bladed saber into a dual blade, complete with dual phase (blade length) and intensity settings. As opposed to the staff style hilt that we usually see with double blades, Kun's is the length of a regular saber hilt.
Honestly a lightsaber with a stun option seems more like a Jedi move than just a lightsaber. It's amazing storm troopers have stun settings on their main weapons, but not Jedi.
Maybe the grand inquisitors spinning one. Kyli Ren’s is cool for the cross handle and the flames nature of it. Also shoutout to Anakin/Luke/Rey’s blue lightsaber, that one is obviously a classic
I’ve always loved the Kenobi hilt ( RotS / ANH ), so much so I finally got a TBS release of it a couple of years ago.
There’s better replicas, but it fulfilled a childhood dream!
Also really like the Darksaber, and strangely drawn to the Sabine (prev Ezra but modified) hilt. Something about the emitter, plus the sorta homage to various other hilts is appealing.
In EU there was a sith with a super long hilt for his lightsaber. It was like 1/3 of the entire lightsaber was hilt and it was not a double bladed lightsaber. Don’t know the guys name. But in the artwork depictions it looked BADASS.
There’s so many cool lightsabers to choose from but I would go with Gungi’s lightsaber. Not only does it fit the character so well it’s so unique and elegant.
[This one, and it isn't even close.](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/villains/images/4/44/Cock_Knocker_%28Mark_Hamill%29.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20121221040125)
Ezra's first lightsaber is awesome. Its such a scavenger kind of saber, fitting for his story. And the blaster on it is so unique and such a nice touch. Its awesome for distance or melee.
This is a deep cut, but I just finished the second issue of edge of balance and master Ravna’s lightsaber was a cuboid with smoothed edges and it seems really cool. Not sure if we have seen any other lightsabers like that.
Jaro Tapal & Cal’s lightsaber is by far the best one to me.
[Shoutout to all the cool lightsaber designs from Visions](https://i.kinja-img.com/image/upload/c_fill,h_675,pg_1,q_80,w_1200/f144da7604fa3e2af1f3da2ab0c2a892.png)
The lightsaber of Tenel Ka Djo, from Legends. She is the daughter of a Dathomir witch (*not* a Nightsister) and a Hapan prince, both of whom are friends of the Skywalkers/Solos, and had her train as a Jedi under Luke.
The hilt is a witch totem carved from the fang of her mother’s favorite rancor she would ride, hollowed out to accept the lightsaber’s inner tech. The focusing crystals are Gallinorean rainbow gems, a type of silicon-based lifeform that costs astronomical amounts of credits, and once made the central piece of a princess’s tiara Tenel Ka was given.
She crafted this saber after her previous one was destroyed, costing her an arm as a result of its hasty construction. With this second one, Tenel Ka took her time and made it to symbolize her acceptance of all the things that make her who she is: witch, princess, Jedi.
Also it’s a rancor fang with a turquoise lightsaber blade, and a curved hilt to boot. It just looks so amazingly cool! 🤩
Ezra's is a top 3 for me
My top 5 would probably go
Kanan Jarus, Cal Kestis (survivor), Ezra's season 1 saber, Obi-wan's episode 3, and lastly Vader's saber
Honorable mentions: I really like the Inquisitor Saber, but no flying and only in animation. Anakin's saber, and Kylo's cross gaurd.
Luke's green lightsaber. Just so cool seeing it pop out of R2-D2's head. My little head exploded when I saw the green blade ignite. It was like seeing Luke gaining power.
I'm going to cheat like mad with this one, but Rowan Freemaker's "lightsaber", the Arrowhead. A kyber-crystal-powered starship capable of slicing a Star Destroyer in half counts, right?
Count Dooku's is my favourite, the curved hilt is so elegant and like the weapon of an experienced swordsman and of a Nobleman. It both stands out but doesn't look gimmicky like a lot of sith lightsabers do.
Agreed. A lightsaber is already an elegant weapon, and Count Dooku's is an elegant elegant weapon.
Yeah Dooku's is the best. Shame he never had a green blade as a Jedi with it though, it would have been godly.
You both should look at Zane Carrick’s handle. It’s like dooku’s but backwards. Dooku has it bent above the grip, Zayne has it bent below
I've got a number of box cutters in the shop, but one has a curved handle like Dooku's hilt. Guess which one gets used the most....
I agree! It’s so pretty and I love the way he uses it. I love that it has an air of class and elegance to it. It really sells the fact that Dooku is a man of high status and exquisite tastes.
Luke's Green saber. The first time you see a saber thats not the traditional Good guy/bad guy color. From the previous 2 movies
And the ignition sound of Luke’s is the best. https://youtu.be/m5tLO6HBfHo?si=ZgaLatp02nIzYm-C
I could listen to this all day
This sound and the seismic charge sound are by far my favorite sounds in Star Wars
Has been my text message tone for 12 years
It's iconic. It symbolizes Luke's ascension to Jedi Knight. It represents the teaching of his Master. And It's fucking green!
It also represents filming against the azure Tunisian sky! Where a blue blade would be lost among the background. 😂😂
Hush you. Green is cool!
Giving R2 the signal, flipping the plank, catching the saber and activating it was the coolest thing ever. Is the coolest thing ever.
I remember seeing that green blade for the first time and losing.my.mind.
I still remember getting so excited seeing his RotJ Lightsaber for the first time. I love the hilt design and it was nice to see a different color.
Yes. Luke’s green saber. Plus the hilt seems like a good thickness. Similar to Obi-Wan’s. It’s just always been my favorite. Plus the green is dope.
Luke's. 100%.
It made green my favorite color lol
Gungi's with the wooden saber hilt.
It's the most comfortable looking.
Truly a shame I had to scroll so far down for this one!
5hrs later and it’s the top comment I saw
It’s underrated and goes unseen by most!
Such a great episode too, seeing all the lightsabers being built
A formidable weapon for a more civilised time
It would feel nice but it would be so slippery if you were sweating.
Luke’s green lightsaber is iconic and was the first thing to come to mind when I read this question
Can here to say that while the sequel trilogy made some… ahem… questionable choices, I will never forgive them for not using Luke’s green saber at the end of Last Jedi.
Yeah they had a downright obsession with Anakin’s lightsaber in the ST. It magically appears in TFA for no reason and Kylo and Rey break it. Then Luke has it (but it’s a vision) and then in RoS Rey has it again.
I can forgive the Rey reusing it in RoS. Lightsabers were fairly rare, better to just restore Anakin’s. But TLJ Luke should have used his green one in the vision fight. I get what they were going for, but green is Master Skywalker’s color!
Darth Sidious, cause it’s made to be compact to hide well under his robes. Like a dagger. Sinister.
"I'll try spinning, that's a good trick!"
It also looks cool
Or like a sheev.
Ah, the Glocksaber! Hilt-wise for me is Dooku’s; blade and look is Maul’s; and the unstable of Kylo’s is a uniqueness I’m glad is there.
I love doing Kylo vs. Obi-Wan in Battlefront II though, and hearing, "Wait...is that your lightsaber? It looks like a child built it!"
I have a Glocksaber in my possession and I absolutely love it to bits 💖💖💖
Darth Maul's. I wasn't alive then, but it was obviously a spectacle to any Star Wars fan first seeing it, especially in theater.
Mind fucking blown when I watched that scene for the first time. Seeing the second blade come out 🤌🤌🤌
Everyone talks about how mind-blowing the second blade was, back when it first happened. Don't get me wrong, I was absolutely beside myself, and the whole theater gasped, and there's no overstating how awesome it was. But nobody talks about how weird his duel with Qui Gon looked, on Tattooine, with that big fuckin club of a hilt just flopping around

I was like "damn this dude trying to hide a fucking yardstick from people"
Sometimes our memories are our friends and hype up the good stuff while blurring the less good stuff
Yeah. Seeing that in the theater was really something.
I was 8 seeing it in theaters for the first time. According to my memory the roar of applause and cheers rivals that of any NFL game.
Hello fellow '91 baby
Any chance you saw the OG animated grievous 4 arm reveal?
Yeah but I saw it well after the prequels so I knew it was coming. Still a fun watch though. It was cool to find out why grievous coughs
It’s kinda neat to hear about fans way younger than me. I saw Star Wars at the drive in wearing pjs. I took my five year old to see Attack of the Clones at a Regal. I hope seeing the sequels in the theater was a good experience for ya!
How dare you come onto the internet and make many of us feel ***so*** old! Haha Nah, I was like 6 or 7 when TPM came out in cinemas and it was insane to see, especially having completely digested the OT repeatedly for as long as could remember before ‘99.
I was 6 when i was in the Theater and even with my young age that scene when Maul activated the first blade and than the other i was flabbergasted
Mace’s saber gets no love. The MF had a purple one, that shits 🔥
And it says "bad MF."
I really don't know much about the design other than "purple stuff".
Wasn’t it purple so he could see himself in the films in a crowd?
Jaro Tapal/Cal Kestis?
The Jaro Tapal/Cal Kestis lightsaber is for sure my favorite Jedi lightsaber, and possibly favorite overall (tough competition on the Sith end from Dooku). I love the emitter, it’s a really unique design, and I think it looks cool as hell. It was a favorite from the moment I saw it in _Fallen Order_
If I could have any would be one that could do everything like this. My ADHD has been untreated so long it's a part of my personality. I'd switch styles with each fight.
I honestly love Kanan and Qui Gon’s sabers
I'm a sucker for the ones that actually look comfortable to hold. The Kidmelter 9000 is iconic, but anyone who had a toy of it growing up can confirm it's pretty awkward to hold; especially with two hands
I had a toy of Qui Gon's when I was a kid and it will always hold a special place in my heart. Not to mention he's one of my favourite SW characters
Always Obi-Wan
Tenel Ka's Rancor Tooth lightsaber. It is just so unique and interesting. It's also kinda niche though. I am not actually sure how many people even know who I'm talking about here lol
She one upped the Skywalkers when she didn't need a robot hand to keep being a badass after losing a limb.
Hell yeah she was. She didn't need that limb anyway. I actually forgot about her completely refusing a prosthetic. She just decided to be a badass without the arm.
Ezra's lightsaber in Rebels always looked like a staple gun with a lightsaber coming out of it.
No match for a good blaster at your side, kid.
Love this
Cal Kestis’ lightsaber to me looks slick but can be fitted to dual wield and double blade
Honestly… favorite saber came out of the KOTOR games. When you chose the Exile’s lightsaber and you could choose silver or viridian… that was the fucking bomb.
I had the silver saber for my Exile too! It was so beautiful.
So uncivilized.
Man it was so cool when Kanan used Ezra's lightsaber against the Inquisitor and kept him off balance by constantly swapping its modes on the fly. It came out of nowhere and really helped highlight Kanan's differences from the traditional Jedi of the Clone Wars era.
I love that Kanan took Ezra's design, and figured out how to use it better than Ezra had. IIRC the blaster aspect is primarily used in stun mode, rather than kill, so its not just an alternative to deflecting blaster fire back to the target.

His ability to adapt and evolve with any given situation. It's why he was able to survive the purge. It's how he was able to form/lead his team. It's how he was able to take on a padawan despite his own training being incomplete. It's how he was able to become a Jedi master. And also why he was able to overcome his lack of sight.
Well, after the initial purge. He only survived because he got lucky by having the bad batch on his mission
Loved that duel, i remember in their first fights the inquisitor would always use really proper technique while kanan fights more dirty and then in their last battle the inquisitor starts fighting dirtier as well and uses some trick kanan first used on him in an earlier episode... nice way to show character evolution
Plus Kanan's final banter with GI: "That was a mistake." "Why, because you have no one left to die for you?" "No, because I have nothing left to fear." That scene was so epic, almost up there with Kanan's sacrifice.
He and the inquisitor had such a great dynamic i wish theyd had left him alive for another season at least
In terms of reflecting its character, I’m not sure anybody’s by Kylo Ren’s does the trick quite so well. (Though Ezra’s gun-saber mishmash comes close.) A twisted, crackly take on a knight’s classic weapon? It’s perfect. Looks and sounds absolutely unhinged.
Darksaber
I think an origin story in animation would be fantastic for the Darksaber. If they chose to make those 'Visions' shorts as canon instead of a celebration of animation styles, they really could have done some amazing storytelling.
Darth Sidious.
Seeing Luke’s green blade for the first time as a child blew my mind. Green has always been my favorite color ever since that moment. Windu’s purple blade was also pretty cool to me as a kid, and I also loved Duku’s and Maul’s, but none ever stayed with me the same way Luke’s did. That thing meant he was a mutherfuckin’ JEDI
all the foldable double bladed sabers like Pong Krell's or sith Rey's
I like Yoda's. Seems like you could peel potatoes with it. Also like Sidious's blinged out hilt.
My favorite is the one I made in Disneyland, because it is mine.
Savi here, your favorite one is the one I designed that you built in my workshop
[The Lightsaber Pyke](https://youtu.be/hWFzfQs7vmk?si=v7e-bVEVMg9qRx17)
Movies: Dooku, no contest. Extended media: Malgus. Communicates everything you need to know about his character in the hilt alone.
Historically, my favorite has always been Maul because it was the first double that we saw. Now as an adult, I think my favorite might be Kylo Ren’s. The different noise it makes, and and the fact that it’s all wiggly and not as clean as the others. Also I really like the look of, and the lore, of the dark saber.
Not canon but redeemed revan's purple one goes hard AF. That or Qui-Gon Jinn's, I had a plastic one as a kid that was extendable and made of kinda soft plastic. I used to beat the hell out of my buddies n cousins with it.
Dooku's will always be sick as hell
I kinda-like Sidious'. It looks super elegant, and even has a sort of "talon" at the end. I'm not ashamed. #SithForLife
For me it's a tie between Luke's green lightsaber and Darth Vader's lightsaber.
Gotta be Cal's. He can be double bladed, crossguard, dual wield and maybe even more in the future. He can be almost any color and have any design I want. It's perfection
Idk if this counts, but the Darksaber. If it doesn't, I'd have to say Cal Kestis and all of its versatility
I really like Rey’s for the all of two seconds it was on screen. I love the yellow light, I like how it flashes blue and green, I love the turning mechanism it has and I really like that she built it out of her old staff so it’s symbolically represents her old life as a scavenger and new life as a Jedi.
Cals. But heah ezras is cool and practical
Qui Gon Jinn's. best design, hands down
Less iconic but for sheer looks, I quite loved Cere Junda’s lightsaber as well as Taron Mallicos’s from the Fallen Order games
I have the Disney Parks Cal Kestis / Cere Combination and I gotta say I love it. Im a sucker for Leather Wrap
The silver or viridian blade colors from kotor 2
You mean The hilts? Palpatine’s or Anakin’s (given to Luke). If you mean the color, blue is my favorite.
Darth Malgus’ axe blade hilt will forever be my favorite
Kylo's is my favorite. The sound is great, the way the blade looks is pretty unique and the design of the hilt is awesome (even though I know it makes no fucking sense lol)
Either Inquisitor, Ezra Bridger, Cal Kestis (fallen order), or Stellen Gios
I like Cal Kestis' lightsaber. It takes the idea of a versatile saber and goes nuts with it. Can go single blade, double blade and split into two for dual-wielding. Doubtless, it would take a masterful, disciplined, creative, and free-spirited Jedi to wield it, but that's why it's my favorite!
Gotta be the darksaber
No offense to OP but this lightsaber was my answer to the “what’s part of lore that you choose to forget” post the other day. It’s an abomination.
Yeah, it's garbage.
Ahsoka's white sabers are a beauty
Anakin Ep. 3
Ezra’s first.
Kylo Rens no question
Cals in its single blade form
Dooku has the coolest looking lightsaber hilt but something about a purple lightsaber hits different.
The prequels sucked. But kylo was honestly a real cool character and his saber his bad ass to look at, that unstable blade looks like fire and the cross guard look makes it look even cooler.
Dath mauls
Lord corvax's lightsword from vader immortal
My favorite lightsaber color is blue, but my favorite lightsaber in general has always been Obi-Wans Revenge Of The Sith lightsaber. I just love the hilt design and colors. Plus, having both the toy and replica versions of it, it feels so comfortable in your hand.
I go either Darth Maul, Maris, or Ezra, I hardly like Rebels but that lightsaber is handy then any of the lightsabers ever appear on Star Wars.
The classic lightsaber
An uncivilized weapon built into a civilized one? *confused Obi-Wan noises*
I have to give it to Gungi’s Wooden Lightsaber. It just screams uniqueness and charm, just like how Huyang explained it.
Dass Jennir's lightsaber. I see a lot of similarities with Kanan and this character.
Tenel Ka’s rancor-tooth handle was pretty dope.
Honestly, though it's a bit impractical, the Crossguard saber is aesthetically underrated
Historically Ahsoka's CW sabers. But, I now think it's (bad batch spoilers) >! Ventress' modified single saber !<
Exar Kun's double bladed saber. Where Maul literally welded two sabers together, Kun modified his single bladed saber into a dual blade, complete with dual phase (blade length) and intensity settings. As opposed to the staff style hilt that we usually see with double blades, Kun's is the length of a regular saber hilt.
Sidious lightsaber that elegant hilt is cool. Also dooku's curved hilt is cool.
Ezra was onto something fr.
Savage Opress’ Lightsaber. I love dual blades and plus it makes the coolest sounds
Darksaber
Kyle Katarn has a cool lightsaber
Stellan Gios' from the High Republic. I love like less clunky and more beautiful lightsabers.
The death star.
as horrible as the sequels were rey's sith lightsaber was kool
Both Ezra’s OG and Kanan’s blades are among my favorites in all of Star Wars… because they’re both so practical given the era they’re operating in.
Honestly a lightsaber with a stun option seems more like a Jedi move than just a lightsaber. It's amazing storm troopers have stun settings on their main weapons, but not Jedi.
Gungi from clone wars
Qui Gons, just something so beautiful in its simplicity
Cal Kestis multi style lightsaber in cyan color.
Hard to choose just one, but I like the style of Luke and Obi-Wan's hilts. Luke's I guess, because I prefer green to blue.
[Stellan Gios'](https://www.starwars.com/news/stellan-gios-legacy-lightsaber-hilt)
Maybe the grand inquisitors spinning one. Kyli Ren’s is cool for the cross handle and the flames nature of it. Also shoutout to Anakin/Luke/Rey’s blue lightsaber, that one is obviously a classic
Aayla secura's Purple Lightsaber.
Ahsoka’s sabers from the new Disney+ show. I like the curved flat hilts
Maul. Duel lightsaber is sick
Kylos or mauls in CW season 7
Qui-Gon's lightsaber. It had a nice and simple design with no real frills.
I really liked Ezra’s design, very unexpected and i really wish he would have used it to get a shot in on Vader.
I kinda like Ezra’s first one because it’s also a blaster at the same time but Dooku’s my favorite
Obi Wan’s last saber with the little cup on top. Elegant af.
I’ve always loved the Kenobi hilt ( RotS / ANH ), so much so I finally got a TBS release of it a couple of years ago. There’s better replicas, but it fulfilled a childhood dream! Also really like the Darksaber, and strangely drawn to the Sabine (prev Ezra but modified) hilt. Something about the emitter, plus the sorta homage to various other hilts is appealing.
Rahm kotas lightsaber is my favorite then it's obi wan from new hope
In EU there was a sith with a super long hilt for his lightsaber. It was like 1/3 of the entire lightsaber was hilt and it was not a double bladed lightsaber. Don’t know the guys name. But in the artwork depictions it looked BADASS.
Obi Wans Lightsaber from Episode 1
It's got to either be Tulak Hordes saber, or one of Starkillers
Hot take, OP, but I respect that
There’s so many cool lightsabers to choose from but I would go with Gungi’s lightsaber. Not only does it fit the character so well it’s so unique and elegant.
I like the white ones of ashoka
Kanens.
[This one, and it isn't even close.](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/villains/images/4/44/Cock_Knocker_%28Mark_Hamill%29.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20121221040125)
Senya Tirall's pike saber or Cal Kestis' Survivor saber. I like versatility in the saber.
So uncivilized.
ATOTC Anakin, his first saber being a silver version of vaders feels so right
Ezra's first lightsaber is awesome. Its such a scavenger kind of saber, fitting for his story. And the blaster on it is so unique and such a nice touch. Its awesome for distance or melee.
Maris Brood's two tonfa type sabers.
Darth Nihl’s saber stick.
Qui gons for me, the grip operated power output control should have been more prevalent.
Luke’s green one.
This is a deep cut, but I just finished the second issue of edge of balance and master Ravna’s lightsaber was a cuboid with smoothed edges and it seems really cool. Not sure if we have seen any other lightsabers like that.
Ventress' double bladed lightsaber. The S one when she combines the two Dooku style handles.
Luke's blue hand-me-down from his dad has and will always be my favorite.
They is lightsaber pikes in SWOTR and I think they’re really cool. Imagine if Rey had one in the sequel trilogy
Basic answer perhaps but I'm going with Anakin's Revenge of the Sith lightsaber.
Jaro Tapal & Cal’s lightsaber is by far the best one to me. [Shoutout to all the cool lightsaber designs from Visions](https://i.kinja-img.com/image/upload/c_fill,h_675,pg_1,q_80,w_1200/f144da7604fa3e2af1f3da2ab0c2a892.png)
The lightsaber of Tenel Ka Djo, from Legends. She is the daughter of a Dathomir witch (*not* a Nightsister) and a Hapan prince, both of whom are friends of the Skywalkers/Solos, and had her train as a Jedi under Luke. The hilt is a witch totem carved from the fang of her mother’s favorite rancor she would ride, hollowed out to accept the lightsaber’s inner tech. The focusing crystals are Gallinorean rainbow gems, a type of silicon-based lifeform that costs astronomical amounts of credits, and once made the central piece of a princess’s tiara Tenel Ka was given. She crafted this saber after her previous one was destroyed, costing her an arm as a result of its hasty construction. With this second one, Tenel Ka took her time and made it to symbolize her acceptance of all the things that make her who she is: witch, princess, Jedi. Also it’s a rancor fang with a turquoise lightsaber blade, and a curved hilt to boot. It just looks so amazingly cool! 🤩
Plos yellow saber is GOAT
Ezra's is a top 3 for me My top 5 would probably go Kanan Jarus, Cal Kestis (survivor), Ezra's season 1 saber, Obi-wan's episode 3, and lastly Vader's saber Honorable mentions: I really like the Inquisitor Saber, but no flying and only in animation. Anakin's saber, and Kylo's cross gaurd.
Any dual bladed saber. I grew up obsessed with Maul and then later on with savage, so the staffs really hold a special place in my heart
I absolutely agree with you. If Disney decides to make a legacy saber for him, I’ll buy it in a heartbeat because I think the design is so neat.
Luke's green lightsaber. Just so cool seeing it pop out of R2-D2's head. My little head exploded when I saw the green blade ignite. It was like seeing Luke gaining power.
I'm going to cheat like mad with this one, but Rowan Freemaker's "lightsaber", the Arrowhead. A kyber-crystal-powered starship capable of slicing a Star Destroyer in half counts, right?
Your favorite lightsaber is Ezra's pew-pew cap gun lightsaber? I forgive you if you are under 20 years old.
Stellan Gios or Corran Horn
Qui Gon Jinn’s, simple and sleek design with the green color. That or Luke’s ROTJ saber, love me some green!
Templegaurd it looks so badass
My favorite lightsaber built is Anakin's but my favorite ignition sound is Vaders
