That is Yoda's comlink, not his saber.
you're not looking in the right place. right after Yoda hits the ground, and before he looks up at his falling cloke. look to the bottom right of the screen, you will see it. it's on the senate floor, not in bails speeder.
I got that, but you do not see it on him when he dives into Bail's speeder. Only his comlink is on him.
well if you got that, then you are suggesting that Yoda left his saber on the senate floor. even though as stated above that he teaches Luke saber technique on Dagoba. why would he leave it there? that doesn't make sense. it makes more sense that we don't see it. Yoda would not leave his weapon behind. no jedi would.

Yoda losing his saber keeps in mode with everyone else losing
their saber. I think GL even mentioned once that he likes
the irony that all the Jedi lose sabers at some point.
Obi Wan loses his in TPM.
Anakin loses his in AOTC.
Obi Wan loses another one in AOTC.
Anakin loses his in ROTS.
Mace loses his in ROTS.
Sidious loses his in ROTS.
Luke loses Anakin's in ESB.
I can't remember, does Luke wear his new one
again by the end of ROTJ? After the DS II blows?

Yes, you can see Luke's saber when he embraces Leia at the end.
Also, I don't see why Yoda doesn't bring another saber with him to Dagobah. After all, he gains his robe he lost in the Senate duel. Also, Obi-Wan has an identical saber in AOTC of the one he lost in TPM.

I just don't see the OT Yoda,
Mr. "wars no make one great"
Jedi master requiring a saber anymore.
What would he need it for?
I like the samurai imagery of him
never using it again.
Just something romantic, I s'pose.

Yoda's trying to get the hell outta dodge. He got his butt kicked. He crawled away with his "tail between his legs". What Yoda taught Luke on Dagobah was with remotes and a few metal bars that he took from the escape pod. He never trained Luke how to fight with a Lightsaber, per say. He tested and honed Luke's reflexes. If he really trained him with a Lightsaber, Luke would be fighting more like the Jedi used to, rather than the way he does later on.
Anyway, Luke's training on Dagobah was only see in the novelization and the Marvel Comics adaptation. Both versions did not show Yoda using a Lightsaber. I don't know what the current young adult adaptations, which were written in recent years, would say.

Because dagobah is strong with the dark side. It would be careless of Yoda to travel to an unknown place unprotected. Remember 'this weapon is your life'
Well he didn't have it in the films. In the eu, he did, but he lost it at some point or decided to never take it out again. Yoda did just fine for 20 some years without a Lightsabers.

I think yoda lost his lightsaber but he most likely built him another saber. Another very interesting thing is luke lost vaders blue lightsaber,but how would luke have made his new green saber without yoda teaching him the specs of how to construct a lightsaber as yoda was the only jedi living with the knowledge of the construction.Any thoughts...........

Yoda also loses his cloak in order to "get the hell outta dodge." And yet on Polis Massa, Yoda, "magically" gains a new cloak! So who's to say that Yoda doesn't also have extra lightsabers as well?

Yoda never thought about that lightsaber again after Palpatine's lightning knocked it from his grasp. Plus as stated already, he had to get out of there. Sidious, Mas Ameeda, and the clone troopers wanted him dead.

Ben left everything Luke needed in his hut on Tatooine.
I guess those Jawas REALLY respected Kenobi's turf.
I always wanted to believe, since TPM, that the green crystal in
Ben's hut used by Luke belonged to Qui Gon Jin.
There's no evidence for this, just something I've always liked.
Then again, I wanted Mon Mothma to be Luke and Leia's mother from
ROTJ until TPM.

Luke's Lightsaber was constructed on Tatooine, using information that Obi-wan kept for him. Besides, it's not that difficult. Just get the necessary parts and set to work. Luke had his father's for three years and studied it in detail. The crystal was created artificially.

You can buy them at any five and dime store. Yoda didn't take a second Lightsaber with him and he didn't build a second one.

Strategically it would be better for Yoda to leave his lightsabre in the Senate chamber. Sidious most certainly had the clones search every square inch of the chamber looking for signs of Yoda. If his cloak and and lightsabre are found but there are no signs of a body then it's possible that he died and literally vanished into thin air. If the lightsabre is gone then Yoda is still alive and that would make tracking him down a top priority for Sidious.

Sidious knew that Obi-wan and Yoda survived, but he wasn't concerned. They were running scared along with the rest. In time, Sidious figured that Yoda was dead and that Obi-wan would soon be as well. That's why Vader never considered that Luke was being trained by anyone other than Obi-wan. And that he could no longer help Luke.

But the films NEVER explicitly say this, so you cannot say this for certain and leaving the possibility of Yoda having another saber, especialy since other characters like Obi-Wan, Anakin, Sidious and Luke have new sabers after losing their previous ones. Also, EU sources say that Yoda DOES have a lightsaber on Dagobah.
