Saddened by the lack of traffic on this lovely forum I went on a quest to sum up some of the finest things in the star wars universe. Da swords! This is what I came up with. The complete gathering of canon lightsabres (as far as I know) save Ki-Adi-Mundi's. No hard feelings, it just didn't fit in the way I had in mind. I thank Frank for pointing out to me the facts of life inside the forums, and hope you all enjoy this tidbit!

Yes, it looks small, doesn't it? The outer two red switches are the activators, the inner two red's are modulating controls. The grey buttons are failsafe buttons, so it doesn't go off in awkward moments, I guess!

Qui-Gons and Mace Windu's looks Cool but i love that Platnum one that Anakin uses its looks so cool. I really dont like Maul's Saber one slip and you lose a leg

I think Qui-Gon's looks best, 'cause it's so simple yet sophisticated. Apparently the ribs in the handle are rechargeable microcells (the average sabre has one solid energy cell placed inside the handle). Obviously Obi-Wan has incorporated this in his (late) sabre, but with an extra backup-cell in the butt.
The older sabres, like Vader's, are too short for my taste, more like a one and-a-half handed sword. The newer ones are longer, kinda' like Katana-handles.
The producers have gone to great lenghts to develop a real Jedi fighting style consistent with ancient martial arts as well as newer ones. There are many sites witch deal with this topic, and as it happens, I have one here for you to reflect upon!
It isn't the most thorough I've stumbled upon, but should have many tidbits some of you didn't even know about. I hope this knowledge adds to your own movie experience, at least it did for me!

ok is yoda's lightsaber in the pic authentic? I think it is a fake!! It looks to small for lightsaber technology to work. It looks even to small for Yoda's body.

Almost half the sabres in my image come from different pictures, so I scaled them as best I could. Yoda's may be a bit too small but there really is no way to know yet! About the sabre itself, it is official, however not canon until it has been in a movie. Check out Frank's link if you want to learn more.
