[Music] [Music] hey guys this is Luke and taught from the scoundrels Cantina and we're giving you the countdown on the top 10 most unique lightsabers we will be choosing the lightsabers from Canon and the expanding universe because we consider all cannon for ourselves and merge all the stories together so that there is no confusion on while including lightsabers from all around keep in mind that this is just our opinion and feel free to share your thoughts below we will be ranking them on their unique designs and unorthodox features most of these lightsabers are one-of-a-kind bow a lot of you which had not slip through anyways let's begin and number 10 we have tera sinube a darth maul's and the sith acolyte Hazen's saber cannes we put them all together because they all have the same function so we just couldn't choose one because all three are unique the primary purpose of the sabre cane was to act as a concealed weapon a convenient place to hide lightsaber the lightsaber is connected to the shaft of the cane at the eMeter necessitated the removal of the shaft to wield the lightsaber the saber canes were made from different types of materials but most notably made out of wood as demonstrated by terrace Inoue V and Darth Maul and Star Wars rebels the cane was able to hold almost any type of lightsaber but most notably a standard single bladed lightsaber a curved hilt lightsaber and a double bladed lightsaber at number 9 we have palm Krell's double bladed lightsaber with collapsible hilts crowe is not the only known use of the collapsible hilt and the other ones are some Jedi guardians as seen in Star Wars rebels pong Kraus ones are more unique as the lightsabers massive size and the whole pitching buzzing sounded made when it was swung suggests it might qualify for a category of flight club which was a much larger version of the standard lightsaber the lightsabers could be activated whilst in the folded position as shown when general Krell countered fives insubordination with the blade the lightsaber blades were longer than the usual ones because a Crow's basilisk size and forearms not only would the blades longer but also a thicker which would suggest it might fit in the category of the white Club and number eight we have Darth Zannah double bladed red lightsaber desist Prentice Darth Zannah created the double bladed lightsaber that was specifically designed to accommodate her slight physique an elongated hilt supported the force resonating twin synthetic lightsaber crystals that powered the weapon one of which was red star bust shaped and called Bane's heart when in the possession of anyone other than its proper owner Xena's lightsaber which was also called Bane's heart released an electric discharge courtesy of its special crystals and that was kind of a security measure the weapon produced swin red blades each 75 centimeters long which was smaller than the usual double bladed lightsaber length because of that the design sacrifice reach and leverage but bolstered control and maneuverability the lightsaber emitted a buzzing hum upon ignition and thrummed mildly when deactivated it also emitted a peculiarly high-pitched sound when either blade absorbed or redirected forced lightning at number 7 we have kylo ren's unstable crossguard lightsaber we are including it as a unique lightsaber because it has an unstable blade we have seen in Star Wars rebels that there are more than one crossguard lightsaber but kylos is a bit more unique than the others even though we prefer the green one we saw Ezra hold the weapon was constructed and utilized by kylo Ren approximately 30 years after the Battle of Endor it was crudely assembled and based off an ancient design dating back thousands of years to the great scourge of Malachor a single cracked Kyber crystal barely able to contain the weapons power necessitated the lateral vents which diverted the extra heat produced by the crystal to either side of the hilt and gave the weapon its unstable fiery appearance at the Battle of Starkiller base he crossed blades with the lightsaber the previous would belong to the Skywalker's Kyle wielded this weapon while working aside Anais a friend in the first order and number six we have Marus Brutes guard shadow which is also referred to as the lightsaber tonfa it was a rare ventricular grip type of a short lightsaber with a second handle extending from the main hilt at 90 degrees the guard shadow design allowed for a wide variety of blocking trapping jabbing slashing techniques making it a versatile and extremely dangerous weapon in the hands of someone trade to wield it properly conversely it could be very hazardous to one unskilled to use it because the guard Shadow was primarily designed to block other lightsabers it was most useful when it's handle was laced with brick a lightsaber resistant metallic compound however this was an expensive process a lightsaber made in this design could have been held with the blade pointing out for attacking or with the blade pointed back along the wielder own arm to provide greater defense and cover and allow the wielder to move in very closely to their opponent however the particular grip made it difficult to deliver powerful attacks resulting in a loss of offense compared to a normal shadow Marus brute a Jedi Padawan took to use a pair of guard shadows when she crossed paths with Vader's secret apprentice star Keeler the only other known user of the guard shadow was Cinna a black son member and number five we have been two curves hilt red bladed lightsabers the lightsabers once belonged to Kumari Vasa but after she was killed by her master Count Dooku they were handed to asajj ventress the lightsabers were able to be held separately and also joined together to make a saber staff or in other words a double bladed lightsaber the reason why they are so unique is because they can turn into a curved hilted double bladed lightsaber which was never seen before the way the lightsabers would stick to each other is with the help of a fiber court when in saber staff mode the lightsabers would be somewhat more difficult to wield especially with precision with that said it is a deadly weapon especially in the hands of someone who is skilled in using it at number 4 we have Ward Knowles long handled lightsaber it was constructed by the on Neronian blacksmith shops Davos shortly before his transformation into the Sith Warrior war null the weapon appeared to be a long-handled lightsaber which is not that unique at all but his one was because in fact it was a long-handled double bladed lightsaber which had an emerald green lightsaber blade on one side and a red one on the other not only that but the lightsaber could only have one blade ignited at a time and was used to surprise opponents when switching blades when the secondary blade would ignite the lightsaber would toggle and refocus the power from one end of the blade to the other it would deactivate one side and activate the other and it was not capable of both blades being ignited at the same time in number three we have the inquisitors aka Jedi Hunt his weapon of choice the red double bladed spinning lightsaber it was a specially designed model used by the inquisitors a group of darkside adepts who enforced the will of the Galactic Empire it was capable of both single and double blades the weapon featured the ring ammeter that can partially detached from the cylindrical hand grip in the center allowing the twin blades to rotate rapidly without effort from the wielder like this [Music] we're a Jedi hunter like the Inquisitor dysfunction likely served as a way to intimidate opponents as well as to deflect any frontal form of attack however this was also the weapons primary weakness as the lightsaber wielding opponent could easily destroy the eMeter itself and cut the weapon in half as demonstrated by kanan jarrus during his final duel with the Grand Inquisitor aboard the sovereign the handgrip could be removed entirely from the ring-shaped eMeter allowing the force in Bude circle of metal to be used as a throwing disc it's by far one of the most unique lightsabers out there because of all of its features but we have mixed feelings about - helicopter blades it was okay when we saw a break the fourth Inquisitor but it was a bit too much when we saw it fly around in number two we have the blaster hybrid lightsaber which was the personal prototype lightsaber ezra bridger a Padawan and rebel who lived in years prior to the Battle of Yavin Bridger spent several weeks building his lightsaber after receiving a Kyber crystal in the Jedi Temple on Lothal the weapon which was built out of spare parts donated by fellow members of the ghost crew was the lightsaber blaster hybrid when in lightsaber mode the weapon had an adjustable blade and could be used in combat blaster mode was set to stun and was built-in as a result of Bergers lack of skill and deflecting blaster fire with his blade after being rescued kanan jarrus borrowed this weapon to fight the Grand Inquisitor using it and his own lightsaber to defeat the Inquisitor Darth Vader would destroy this weapon in a duel with Ezra Bridger during the mission on malkor while using the hybrid lightsaber Cayden would attack the Inquisitor by changing the lightsaber mode every few seconds and firing a few blaster shots at him as soon as he got an opening from the lightsaber duel the lightsaber though cannot fire shots while it's ignited it is kind of similar in a way to warm newest long-handled lightsaber and finally at number one we have Liu Maya's light with light whips generally function in the same principles and mechanics as lightsabers emitting a coherent beam of energy that was used as a weapon however rather than the straight meter long blades emitted by standard lightsabers light whips featured long flexible blades that often exceeded several meters in length instead of one large crystal they contain multiple small crystals the plasma in the blade had no cell barriers to keep it straight it appeared standard for these weapons to Emmett only single blades though light whips with multiple tehsils were not unheard of as the silver Maya owned one her light whip was a sith weapon to produce beams of piont energy in conjunction with physical matter its tubular hilt was forged from nearly indestructible Mandalorian iron and was powered by shards of caliber crystal it is quite unique for its three separate extension types along with several filaments of yellow plasma it was insanely difficult to defend from her attacks as demonstrated when she defeated Luke Skywalker the weapon also had its flaws because each time she will attack she would be exposed to a counter-attack and would quickly have to pull back the whip in order to defend herself no so the light whip was basically useless when in close quarter combat honorable mentions include Exar Kun shorthanded blue double bladed lightsaber for its unique design short handle and twin blades which was never seen before on a normal lightsaber handled kanan jarrus is detachable single blue bladed lightsaber which was the best kind of lightsaber for the era he lived in because no one would recognize it as a lightsaber lightsaber pikes that some Jedi Temple Guardians used on Khorasan during the Clone Wars and also different types of lightsaber fights for example Kasdan paralysis and the emperor's force-sensitive royal guards as seen in the Force Unleashed game Padawan gun geez wouldn't handle green bladed lightsaber because it is the first known standard lightsaber would-wouldn't hilt and finally the dark saber which didn't fit on to this list but definitely is one of the most unique lightsabers there in the Star Wars galaxy it is listed in our top 10 best lightsabers video so if you think that this is one of the best sabers
