    I think he kept it to mourn.

    Well,I think after he used it he gave a good thought about burning it,or keeping it.He decided to keep it he kept it for his whole life until he died.

    My theory is that it would have been put into the Jedi equivalent of a 'museum' or Jedi Archives.

    It may have been on display as the lightsaber that defeated a Sith Lord, on display like Isildor's sword in LOTR that was responsible for defeating Sauron.

    Perhaps it was lost during the Purge,explaining perhaps the remains of jedi and all the stuff in the temple like this: It was a dark day for the Republic.Darth Vader's stormtroopers had killed all the jedi alive,remains of jedi and their belongings are scattered with the remains of the Temple.Lord Vader kneels over a hunk of ash in the darkness,"A lightsaber",he says, his voice trailing off.......Qui-Gon's lightsaber.......... That is what I think happend,and he kept it until he died on the Death Star,it just blew up along with the ship.

    On the cover of Rogue Planet, Obi-Wan is holding Qui-Gon's lightsaber, so he probably kept it and used iit for a wile. Then again, considering the Marvel Comics covers featured all red lightsabers, covers can be deceiving.

    This was originally posted by SilentSith: Not to change the topic, but talking about lightsabers and where they went, what happened to Obi-Wan's in ANH? Did Vader keep it or something??

    Well, in the Junior Jedi Knights series, it reveals that Darth Vader kept in in his fortress. Anakin Solo finds it, and gives it to Luke. Then, in the New Jedi Order, I'm not sure exactly what happened, but a grown-up anakin got it, and replaced the crystal with an organic Yhuzzan Von(SP?) crystal that emitted a lavender blade.

    I stole it. It's sitting above my fireplace next to a ship in a bottle. HA!

    :p

    slimybug- All right, and thanks for answering the question. That?s what I figured happened to it. Now...any idea what happened to Yoda?s lightsaber? (I?ll stop asking questions now).

    Yep, Obi-Wan Kenobi did use it during the event's of Rogue Planet. I did'ent read the whole novel so what happend to it? :confused:I remember anticipating Obi-Wan still using it going into AOTC, instead he had to build a replica of his crappy TPM model. :mad:

    Another theory I heard was that it was possibly put on display in the Jedi Archives since they were rumored to have archaic Holocrons and various ligtsabers there......

    I think it was burnt with QGJ. And I think that Luke Skywalker did the same with Vader's l.saber in ROTJ.

    It's been a while since I've read Rogue Planet...but I think Obi-Wan did use it against a TF starfighter's straffing attack (it's didn't go as well as planned). But after that, I don't recall what might have happened to Qui-Gon's lightsaber.

    When I saw the "Breathing" trailer, my original thought was that Anakin used Qui-Gon's lightsaber (while building his own) as a sort of momento of their sharded "father figure" (I always thought of Obi-Wan as an older brother trying to raise his younger sibling at the request of their mutual father-like mentor)

    Perhaps Qui-Gon's lightsaber is on display somewhere in the jedi temple, as a symbol of respect for a fallen jedi.

    He might have given it back to the Jedi council. (Not you moderators!) They may have reused it.
