Star Wars: Every Character Who's Wielded The Darksaber

7. Tarre Vizsla

The first person to ever wield the Darksaber was Tarre Vizsla, who was the first Mandalorian to be inducted into the Jedi Order.

As with all Jedi, he was sent to create his own lightsaber during his training, but chose to disregard convention and make a blade of pure black. Even the sound it made was distinctive of its blade, more high-pitched than a regular saber.

Tarre Vizsla used the Darksaber during his time as a Jedi to lead his people, causing his weapon to become a symbol of power and leadership on Mandalore.

When he died, the Darksaber was kept in the Jedi Temple until the fall of the Old Republic, when House Vizsla of Mandalore fell into conflict with the Jedi and stole the Darksaber from the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. Back in possession of the Vizsla clan, the weapon united Mandalore once more and was passed from generation to generation for years to come.
