The SHOCKING Reason Darth Maul Built a Double-Bladed Lightsaber | Star Wars Explained
3The Sith warrior known as Darth Maul is one of the most iconic villains in the Star Wars Universe, and he wields an equally recognizable weapon. He and his double-bladed lightsaber first appeared in The Phantom Menace as the main antagonist to fight against the Jedi on Naboo, where he used the blades to kill the Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn. This was the first time such a weapon had ever been seen in the world of Star Wars.
Every appearance this mythical saber makes in any Star Wars media immediately carries the awe that Maul's original weapon inspired back in 1999. While no details about its origins were made in its original appearances, the story of why the Sith Lord originally built his iconic lightsaber was told in a tale from the old Legends canon.
