Lightsabers are the heart and soul of Star Wars. The iconic glow, the humming sound, and the epic combat scenes all speak to the franchise’s classic sci-fi roots. But while they’re associated with Jedi and Sith, lightsabers have never been the exclusive domain of Force users. Han briefly used Luke’s, and in Rebels and The Mandalorian, non-Force-sensitive Mandalorians like Sabine Wren and Din Djarin wielded the Darksaber, a weapon that originated as a joint Mandalorian and Jedi blade.
