So there are many types of light sabers. Why haven't we seen a lightsaber Lance or spear yet like pic related?

Don't have to draw any, just describe what your ideal lightsaber would look like?

Googled it and found this. Seems too light for being an axe, though. The idea is that you can put a lot of force behind an axe swing with it's weight.

That's pointless. The idea of a heavy swinging axe is to drive deep with moment. Considering lightsabers effectively can cut through *anything, it's a waste.

Lightsaber pikes exist. They're canon, too. The Emperor's guards in Episode 3 (the ones Yoda lifted and smashes against the wall) had them, but never got a chance to activate them. They just don't have the back-facing blades like you drew.

You know, they could steal the Blade movie idea and just make a lightsaber that looks like an ordinary lightsaber and shoots out lightsaber blades in the holder's direction if he's not holding it the original owner intended.

In Star Wars EU, the dark side can use rituals to grant abilities to an artifact or object, and something like force cloak would be great for their own lightsabers. Just pretend to drop it and pretend to let the Jedi beat you to grabbing it and watch him cut off his own hand for it. Just force grab the lightsaber back when it does.

But you know...we can't have ideas like that because both sides have to stand a fighting chance and it wouldn't make for an entertaining movie if a sith lord kept doing that over and over on each battle. So that's not gonna happen.

The "guard" in ep. 7 is actually exhaust vents. Kylo used a fractured crystal, so the energy balance is unstable. He's that much of an edge lord with his temper that it's reflected in his weapon.

The crystal doesn't fragment pieces to power the saber, it focuses the beam. Because energy is passing through the crystal, a fractured one cannot properly balance the beam. This is why his appears as more of a flame jet than a "honed" blade.

But Darth Vader was somewhat weaker after his mutilation than when he was Anakin. The thing is that he was so powerful to begin with that he could still do pretty impressive shit.
