Crossguard lightsaber
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
(Redirected from Forked lightsaber)
The crossguard lightsaber was a type of lightsaber seen very rarely. So far, the only Jedi known to use such a weapon was Roblio Darté, whose lightsaber had two blue blades.
The crossguard lightsaber was essentially a regular lightsaber with a second blade emitter protruding near the first one at a 45 degree angle to the axis of the hilt. Roblio Darté's hilt was also built with a slight curve, though whether this was a standard feature in cross-guard sabers, or simply personal preference remains unknown.
