- "Well done. Looks like you were a good student."
- ―Huyang to Ezra Bridger
During the New Republic Era, the Bokken Jedi Ezra Bridger built a new blue-bladed lightsaber with the help of Huyang in order to replace his previous green-bladed one which he had gifted to his friend, Sabine Wren.[1]
Description
Ezra wields his lightsaber beside Sabine and Ahsoka on Peridea.
The lightsaber that Ezra Bridger built after his years of exile featured a design similar to the lightsaber that belonged to his master, Kanan Jarrus, something that Bridger did intentionally as he tried to honor his master by replicating said design despite being in a rush. Containing a blue kyber crystal, the lightsaber also featured the same type of emitter shroud that Jarrus' lightsaber had, as Huyang gave it to Bridger, saying that he originally kept it for his master back when he was a Padawan in case he ever needed to replace it.[1]
History
Ezra Bridger wields his new lightsaber against a zombified death trooper
After being reunited with Wren and Ahsoka Tano on Peridea, Bridger built his new lightsaber in a hurry aboard Ahsoka's ship using pieces stored by Huyang.[1] Bridger used his saber to help protect the Noti.[4] As Bridger, Wren and Tano attempted to stop Thrawn's return to the known galaxy, Bridger used his new saber to dispatch Night Troopers and a zombified death trooper. After making it aboard the Chimaera, Bridger was unable to ensure Tano, Huyang, and Wren returned to the galaxy with him as Thrawn's forces made their escape, but he did manage to sneak away and unite with the New Republic.[1]
Behind the scenes
Ezra's third lightsaber first appeared in "Part Eight: The Jedi, the Witch, and the Warlord," the final episode of the 2023 television series Star Wars: Ahsoka, released on October 3, 2023.[5]

"A Certain Point of View" — Star Wars Insider 228 dates the events of "Part Seven: Dreams and Madness" to nine years after Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope, which corresponds to 9 ABY per Star Wars: Timelines. Preceding episodes, also take place in that year, since they take place after Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett, which is dated to 9 ABY according to Timelines. As "Part Eight: The Jedi, the Witch, and the Warlord" takes place shortly after Part Seven, the events of Ahsoka as a whole must all take place within the same year.
