Description: The lightsaber Luke Skywalker wields in the Return of the Jedi has a long and complicated history. The hilt worn by actor Mark Hamill in most of the scenes in the movie where the lightsaber is not ignited, was in fact an old Obi-Wan Kenobi "stunt" lightsaber from A New Hope. For the fighting scenes, a newly machined, but more simplified look-alike version of the above lightsaber was created with a removable blade. A cleaned up version of this lightsaber was used for the close-up insert shot when Darth Vader comments on Luke constructing a new lightsaber. This became known as the "hero" version of the prop because it was featured so prominently in a close up. The "Version Two" of the prop was altered in post production to look more like the "hero" lightsaber, possibility in the interest of continuity. The "Version Two" is what you see next to the Emperor in the final scenes as well as Jabba's barge.
