Plo Koon's lightsaber was the personal blue-bladed lightsaber of Jedi Council member Master Plo Koon. He used it during many campaigns in the Clone Wars against the Confederacy of Independent Systems. The design of Koon's lightsaber was quite common among Jedi who saw themselves as sentinels.[3]
History[]
Koon accompanied Jedi Master Mace Windu and his assault team to rescue Master Obi-Wan Kenobi, his apprentice Anakin Skywalker, and Naboo Senator Padmé Amidala from assassination at the Petranaki Arena on Geonosis. There he wielded his lightsaber against the Separatist Droid Army.[1]
Koon continued to wield his lightsaber when he became a Jedi General during the Clone Wars. He used it to great effect in the Battle of Abregado[5] and in his rescue of Adi Gallia.[6]
