Anakin Skywalker's first lightsaber/Legends

"This weapon is your life!"

- Obi-Wan Kenobi

Anakin Skywalker's first lightsaber, which he built at age thirteen in the crystal caves of Ilum, was destroyed in the droid foundries of Geonosis. As he was running through the factory with Padmé Amidala, C-3PO, and R2-D2, his arm was caught in a machine that pinned his arm down. As this was happening, a large razor-sharp blade came down and severed his lightsaber. Anakin was oblivious until he tried to turn it on, when it sputtered and died in his hands.

After the loss of his first lightsaber, Skywalker constructed a second one.
