Sabine Wren's Lightsaber: Ezra's Green Blade and the Darksaber

Sabine Wren’s lightsaber is a green single blade that Ezra Bridger built, and she took it over after he vanished with Grand Admiral Thrawn [1]. Wookieepedia calls it her lightsaber, formerly Ezra’s second one [1]. She changed it, so Huyang, the droid who knows Jedi hilts, says it is hers now [1]. Before that she carried the black-bladed Darksaber, which she gave away. This page covers where her green saber came from, what the hilt looks like, how she uses it in Ahsoka, and what the replica is. Ezra’s own story is on the Ezra Bridger lightsaber page.

Quick answers

• Blade: green, single blade, kyber crystal [1].
• Maker: Ezra Bridger, between 3 BBY and 2 BBY [1]. BBY means before the Battle of Yavin, the calendar Star Wars stories use.
• Hilt: cylindrical and straight, black grip with silver accents [1].
• Her changes: a larger emitter shroud and guard pieces that protect her hands [1][3].
• First screen appearance: Star Wars Rebels, season three premiere “Steps Into Shadow” [1].
• Live action: Ahsoka, set in 9 ABY [2].
• Her other saber: the Darksaber, given to Bo-Katan Kryze [2][4].
• Legends: none. Sabine is canon only; Wookieepedia has no Legends page for her or her saber [1][2].

Where the saber came from

Ezra built his first lightsaber as a blaster hybrid. Darth Vader destroyed it on Malachor [1]. Ezra then built a second one in a more traditional design, which Wookieepedia dates to between 3 BBY and 2 BBY [1]. Databank agrees that Ezra built it while training with Kanan Jarrus and that it later became Sabine’s weapon [3].

Sabine first used it on Krownest, her family’s homeworld. She fought Gar Saxon with it while he held the Darksaber [1]. Later, during the Liberation of Lothal, Ezra left the saber with Sabine before he surrendered himself to Thrawn. She then used it to cut through a window of the Imperial complex so the rebels could escape [1]. One fan site tells it differently, saying Ezra left it with Chopper first, so the exact handoff is told two ways online. This page follows Wookieepedia [1].

Wookieepedia also says Saw Gerrera used the same weapon to ignite a large kyber crystal and destroy an Imperial freighter [1]. Ahsoka Tano later trains Sabine, and her own blades are on the Ahsoka Tano lightsabers page.

Hilt, blade colour and crystal

Wookieepedia describes the hilt as cylindrical and straight, with a black grip and silver accents [1]. The blade is green and the core is a kyber crystal [1]. Databank gives the same colour and says Sabine made custom changes to the hilt, including a guard that shields her hands near the blade’s base [3].

Wookieepedia lists the mods more fully. She added a larger emitter shroud, and the guard pieces by the emitter protect her hands from the blade [1]. The rest of the hilt design stayed mostly as Ezra left it [1]. These are in-universe descriptions from the wiki and the Databank, not statements made on screen.

Why green? On screen, nothing in the sources says Sabine chose the colour. It is simply the crystal Ezra put in the saber [1]. For what green means across the saga and how crystals get their colours, read the green lightsaber page and the kyber crystals guide.

Ezra later built a third blade, with a blue kyber crystal, after he refused to take the green one back [1]. That blue saber belongs on his page, not here.

Sabine and the Darksaber

Her first lightsaber story is a different one. She retrieved the Darksaber from the Nightsister lair on Dathomir [2][4]. Wookieepedia says she did not want it at first, and that her allies convinced her to train with it so she could unite the Mandalorians [2]. Kanan Jarrus and Ezra taught her, starting with training sticks as stand-ins for blades, and she later parried Kanan’s lightsaber with the Darksaber [2].

She wielded it in several fights on Mandalore, and she tried to hand it to Lady Bo-Katan Kryze, who first refused and later accepted it with the support of the other clans [2]. Databank says she gave it to its rightful owner, Bo-Katan [4]. Wookieepedia’s Darksaber page makes a note about custom: the weapon is supposed to be won in combat, and Bo-Katan received it from Sabine without a fight [2].

In short, the Darksaber was Sabine’s lightsaber during the Rebels era, and Ezra’s green saber is her lightsaber from his disappearance to Ahsoka. The full list of owners, the hilt and the beskar details are on the Darksaber page.

Sabine Wren’s lightsaber in Ahsoka

In Ahsoka, set in 9 ABY, Sabine has trained under Ahsoka Tano, left the training, and lives in Ezra’s old roost on Lothal [2]. When the Force-sensitive Shin Hati attacks her, both draw lightsabers and duel, and Hati wins the first round [2]. They meet again on Seatos, where Hati deflects Sabine’s blaster fire and Sabine ignites the green blade [2].

Baylan Skoll’s party later takes her saber, and Thrawn returns it after they reach Peridea [1]. Wookieepedia says she used it there against bandits [2]. When she finally found Ezra, she tried to give it to him. He refused, said the Force was all he needed, and Sabine kept it [1][2]. In the fight to stop Thrawn, she used it against Night Troopers and against a zombified Death Trooper, which she killed after calling the saber to her hand with the Force [2]. Databank notes the same call to hand [4]. For the villain who took her saber, see the Baylan Skoll lightsaber page.

Does Sabine need the Force to use it

Not to swing it. Wikipedia says she is trained in lightsaber combat despite an inability to use the Force, and that in Ahsoka her training stops and later resumes [5]. Databank says she showed no natural Force abilities and that Ahsoka feared she would become vengeful [4]. Wookieepedia says her connection to the Force was weak at first, then improved after she let go of emotional baggage, with the Peridea events as turning point [2].

Kanan trained her with sticks, and Ahsoka gave her a wooden bokken [2]. For the combat styles behind that kind of training, see lightsaber forms. Behind the scenes, Wookieepedia says Rebels writer Henry Gilroy recalled that Force sensitivity was not in the original plan for her, while Dave Filoni says he envisioned a Jedi future for her [2].

Canon status

Sabine appears in Star Wars Rebels, voiced by Tiya Sircar, and in the live-action series Ahsoka, played by Natasha Liu Bordizzo [2]. Both are canon, the continuity Lucasfilm treats as current. Legends is the label for the licensed stories from before the April 2014 reset. Wookieepedia has no Legends page for Sabine or her saber, so there is no old version to tell apart [1][2]. For a film by film list of blades, see every lightsaber by film.

Replica

Hasbro sells The Black Series Sabine Wren Force FX Elite Lightsaber, item F9177, styled after her saber from Ahsoka [6]. Its instruction page lists LEDs and sound effects, a hilt switch and button, a removable blade and a display stand, and says it needs three AA batteries that are not included [6]. The age grade is 14 and up [6]. The page lists no price, and no price was confirmed for this reference, so check a retailer.

For how licensed collectibles compare with other hilts, see Black Series Force FX lightsabers and the lightsaber replica guide.
