Ever since Darth Maul unveiled his double-bladed lightsaber in The Phantom Menace, new and unusual types of lightsaber have been featured throughout the Star Wars franchise. These include the shorter ‘shoto’ sabers used by Yoda and Ahsoka, crossguard lightsabers, and the double-bladed spinning lightsabers issued to Imperial Inquisitors. The introduction of a new lightsaber to Star Wars canon usually means that it will begin to appear in various places. Kylo Ren’s first use of a crossguard lightsaber, for example, prompts other material to establish that the crossguard hilt is an ancient design used by Jedi during the High Republic Era. However, one type of lightsaber seems to be genuinely one-of-a-kind: the lightsaber-blaster hybrid constructed by Ezra Bridger as his first Jedi weapon.This unusual weapon reflects Ezra’s unconventional training as a Bokken Jedi. Ezra, without any guidance from the lightsaber-building droid Huyang, constructs a weapon entirely according to his needs and disregards the usually strict regulations around lightsaber construction. Ezra unintentionally builds a weapon that’s never seen before by incorporating a stun blaster into his lightsaber’s hilt. This weapon design is unconventional, but Ezra effectively uses it in many battles against the Empire before he switches to a more traditional single-bladed green lightsaber. However, this design has never appeared onscreen outside of Star Wars Rebels Seasons 1 and 2, unlike Star Wars’ other unusual lightsaber designs. It’s disappointing that this creative lightsaber-blaster hybrid is so rarely seen, but there are various canonical reasons for its scarcity.The new weapon allows Ezra to fight opponents both up-close and at a distance. Previously, Jedi were only able to execute ranged attacks by deflecting blaster bolts or throwing their lightsabers. These techniques require great skill and concentration. Ezra, through the click of a button, can either take down enemies from afar or fend off his foes at close range. This makes his lightsaber one of the most versatile and user-friendly in the franchise when it comes to combat encounters. The blaster section of the saber is also easily removable for repairs. Ezra can adjust the length and power consumption of his blade depending on the situation. Ezra’s first lightsaber has many advantages and it’s satisfying for Star Wars fans to see the damage that a saber like his can do when in the hands of a trained Jedi.
