Crossguard lightsaber

A crossguard blade was an ancient type of lightsaber that dated back to the Great Scourge of Malachor. During the early rebellion against the Galactic Empire, Ezra Bridger found a green-bladed crossguard lightsaber. Kylo Ren later built his own crossguard blade, which was unstable as the result of a cracked kyber crystal.
