Darksaber Lightsabers
A black blade with a white edge, forged for Mandalore rather than the Jedi or the Sith. Our Beskar Era edition on a Xenopixel V3 board, machined from aircraft-grade aluminium and assembled in our Lincolnshire workshop. Free UK delivery, no import fees, 12-month warranty.
The Darksaber is neither a Jedi nor a Sith weapon. It was forged over a thousand years ago by Tarre Vizsla, the first Mandalorian admitted to the Jedi Order, and passed to his clan on his death. It is flat and edged rather than round, black with a white corona, and among Mandalorians whoever holds it holds Mandalore.

Darksaber | Beskar Era Edition | Xenopixel V3 Flat-Blade

Not a Jedi Weapon. Not a Sith One Either.
The Darksaber is the only lightsaber that belongs to a people rather than an Order. It was forged over a thousand years ago by Tarre Vizsla, the first Mandalorian ever admitted to the Jedi Order, and when he died it went home with his clan rather than back to the Temple.
Why it looks wrong
Every other saber is a beam. The Darksaber is a blade — flat, edged, and tapering to a point, shaped like a Mandalorian sword rather than a column of light. It crackles and hums at a lower pitch than a standard saber, and the black core with its white corona is unmistakable across a room.
What it actually means
Among Mandalorians the Darksaber is not a weapon so much as a claim. Whoever holds it holds Mandalore, and it can only change hands by being won — which is why it has caused rather more trouble than it has ever settled.
Our build
The Beskar Era edition, on a Xenopixel V3 board with a flat blade. The flat profile is the whole point — a round blade would simply be a black lightsaber, which is not the same thing at all.
