Exploring the Significance of the Darksaber in "The Mandalorian" and Its Place in Star Wars History

The Darksaber, a black lightsaber with deep historic ties to Mandalore and its people, was first wielded by Tarre Vizsla, the first Mandalorian Jedi. After his death, it was stolen by members of his clan during the time right before the fall of the Republic and the rise of the Empire. During the Clone Wars, Pre Vizsla used the Darksaber to lead his faction Death Watch to overthrow Duchess Satine Kryze. Later, rebel Sabine Wren stole the Darksaber and gave it to Bo-Katan Kryze, who accepted the saber and her role as leader and united Mandalore once more. However, the Empire attacked Mandalore, genociding its people, and Bo-Katan lost the saber. Years later, it was found in Moff Gideon’s possession. In season two of “The Mandalorian,” Din Djarin won the Darksaber in battle against Moff Gideon. In season three, Din is most worried about going back to Mandalore and purifying himself from the sin of taking off his mask, while Bo-Katan and Moff Gideon both want the Darksaber. Who will get custody of this legendary weapon? We’ll have to wait and see when season three premieres on March 1.
