Como Obi-Wan deixa claro em Attack of the Clones, a incapacidade de segurar um sabre é uma das principais falhas de Anakin e algo que tem sido batido.em.him.repetidamente :
Por que eles não carregam peças sobressalentes, a resposta é que os sabres de luz tomam uma quantidade considerável de esforço para fazer, a maioria dos Jedi só luta com uma lâmina e a maioria dos Jedi não vê ação suficiente para justificar carregar um par de ( em grande parte cerimonial) lâminas, uma vez que quase nunca perdê-los. Em suma, o espaço de cinto adicional poderia ser usado para algo mais útil, como um respirador aquata ou um gancho.A familiar yellow speeder dropped to a resting place on the side of the street. “Anakin!” Obi-Wan walked toward the young Jedi, pointedly holding Anakin’s dropped lightsaber in his hand.
“She went into that club, Master!”
Obi-Wan patted his hand in the air to calm the Padawan, not even registering Anakin’s surprising use of the feminine pronoun. “Patience,” he said. “Use the Force, Anakin. Think.”
“Sorry, Master.”
“He went in there to hide, not run,” Obi-Wan reasoned.
“Yes, Master.”
Obi-Wan held the lightsaber out toward his student. “Next time try not to lose it.”
“Sorry, Master.”
Obi-Wan pulled the precious weapon back as Anakin reached for it, and held the young Padawan’s gaze with his own stern look. “A Jedi’s lightsaber is his most precious possession.”
Once again Obi-Wan pulled it back, never letting Anakin go from his scrutinizing stare. “He must keep it with him at all times.”
“I know, Master,” Anakin replied, a bit of exasperation creeping into his tone.
“This weapon is your life.”
“I’ve heard this lesson before.”
Obi-Wan held it out again, finally relinquishing that awful stare, and Anakin took the weapon and replaced it on his belt.
