After becoming a Sith, Dooku became the Leader of the Separatists Alliance known as Confederacy of Independent Systems (CIS). Dooku’s weapon had quite a distinctive design. With the curved body and crimson color blade, Count Dooku lightsaber was a weapon that was admired by many.Count Dooku’s lightsaber was specifically designed for lightsaber combat.

History
Over the history of Star Wars saga, Count Dooku acquired two different types of lightsabers which are: (1) Dooku’s lightsaber (blue blade- when associated with the Jedi order) (2) Count Dooku’s lightsaber (red blade- when associated with the Sith order)
In Star Wars, Count Dooku was a master of the lightsaber. Count Dooku, as a padawan, had a single bladed blue lightsaber. He rose to become one of the prominent Jedi of his generation, achieving the status of Jedi Master and a seat on the Jedi High Council. But Dooku, as a Jedi Master, abandons the lightsaber he had wielded as a Padawan in order to develop a superior one. The new lightsaber had a unique design that had nothing to do with Yoda (his master) or fashion of that time. To create a new kind of saber, Dooku researched the Jedi Archives’, and built a lightsaber that suited his methods, to help him in combat.
Dooku’s lightsaber was made with a peculiar curved design, which helped him greatly during combat. The lightsaber emitted a blue hue, and Dooku even dueled Jedi Master Yoda with it. The saber gave Dooku more elegance and also gave him more precision in fighting, especially while lunging or slicing at an opponent. Dooku did this because he thought himself a skilled duelist, capable of using his lightsaber with just one hand and fighting several opponents.
Despite being a Jedi Master and a highly skilled duelist, Dooku fell to the dark side of the Force and became a Sith. After his fall, he designed a magnificent saber that was unlike any other saber seen in the galaxy far, far away.
Count Dooku’s Lightsaber (Red-bladed)
The lightsaber’s curved-hilt is the most unique design and the most desired lightsaber among Star Wars fans as it fits better in the palm of the wielder’s hand. It also allows for better blade control while also increasing precision and strength. Count Dooku caught the attention of Darth Sidious, the Sith Lord, who was looking for a new ally to spearhead the Separatist movement. Observing Dooku's mounting disenchantment with the corrupt practices of the Galactic Republic, Sidious recognized a chance to exert control over him. Sidious saw Dooku's potential and skill, even though he already had an apprentice in Darth Maul. Sidious used the Count's discontent and yearning for transformation to his advantage by luring him to the dark side with the promise of becoming his new Sith apprentice, Darth Tyranus.
After turning to a Sith, Count Dooku kept using his original lightsaber with a curved hilt; however, Dooku "bled" the kyber crystal, a Sith ritual in which a Force user channels their hate, pain, and dark side energy into a crystal, corrupting it and turning it red. This is a ritualistic process rather than simply being handed a red crystal by Darth Sidious.
Therefore, it would be more accurate to state that Dooku corrupted his own kyber crystal through this Sith practice, which is why his lightsaber generated a red blade, even though Darth Sidious had a part in Dooku's conversion to the dark side.
In Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, Count Dooku did prevail over both Anakin Skywalker and Obi-Wan Kenobi in lightsaber combat on Geonosis. Later in the same scene he fought with Jedi Master Yoda. The Sith Lord on the verge of defeat created a distraction by throwing a piece of the wall on the Anakin and Obi-Wan who were lying unconscious on the floor, so Yoda would have no other option but to save both the Jedi. Using this opportunity, Count Dooku escaped.
Creation
Construction of Count Dooku’s Lightsaber
Count Dooku wields an unusual lightsaber with a unique curved hilt. The distinctive design of the Count Dooku lightsaber style has come to represent an entire style of lightsabers. The style emphasized speed and accuracy, and it was designed for the purpose to cause maximum damage in one hit.
He customized the lightsaber’s design with a curved hilt that perfectly matched his fighting style, resulting in a one-of-a-kind lightsaber unlike any other saber made at the time. He would also utilize this saber even as a Sith Master. The Count Dooku saber hilt was handmade accompanied by a kyber crystal that radiated a red blade. The form’s concentration on parrying served as the backbone of the technique, allowing for such quick and precise assaults. One of the disadvantages of this style is that it was never endorsed for blaster deflection.
Functionality of Count Dooku’s Lightsaber
The weapon was designed for lightsaber battles and it perfectly matched Dooku’s personality. Dooku’s lightsaber has a curving strike that favors long, graceful movements and dexterity of hand.
The most prominent weapon is a curved-hilt lightsaber that fits better in the palm and allows for better blade control while also allowing for greater accuracy and strength.
Usage
Major Feats
- The Battle of Geonosis
Dooku utilized his weapon against Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Yoda in the First Battle of Geonosis, which kicked off the Clone Wars.
Dooku was met by Jedi Knight Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, Kenobi’s Padawan, in a secluded hangar as Dooku attempted to flee Geonosis. With his lightsaber, he quickly defeated both his opponents. While dueling with Anakin, the Sith Lord cut off the young Padawan’s hand. After this Dooku was immediately faced by Yoda, his former Master, who Dooku was unable to defeat in combat with either the Force or his lightsaber, despite the fact that he had challenged his previous master to demonstrate how strong he had become.
- Killing of Gungan Traitor in Naboo
As the head of the Separatist Alliance, Count Dooku led the military campaign against the Galactic Republic by wielding his recognizable curved-hilt Sith lightsaber throughout the Clone Wars movie. Even though he was using the Sith identity of Darth Tyranus, Dooku was not afraid to use his Sith lightsaber in public. Dooku used his red-bladed weapon in many battles during the war, one of which was the assassination of the Gungan traitor Rish Loo on Naboo in front of Anakin Skywalker.
- Training Of Sith Apprentices and General Grievous
Asajj Ventress and Savage Opress were two apprentices that Count Dooku tried to teach the ways of the dark side, but neither was meant to become a true Sith Lord because the Sith Rule of Two only permitted one master and one apprentice. Dooku only wanted to command them as agents of the dark side. But Darth Sidious became worried about Ventress's strength and gave Dooku the order to destroy her. Savage Opress was initially intended to be used as a weapon when Dooku took him on as an apprentice, but Sidious eventually stepped in once more to make sure Savage did not turn into a threat.
In addition, Dooku taught the cyborg General Grievous how to use a lightsaber, which helped Grievous become a skilled Jedi hunter even though he was not Force-sensitive. Grievous was led by Dooku to kill multiple Jedi and take their lightsabers as mementos, which he used to fight with his many arms.
General Grievous ultimately met his demise at the hands of Obi-Wan Kenobi at the Battle of Utapau. Following a fierce duel, Kenobi defeated Grievous in single combat by destroying his exposed organic heart and lungs with a blaster.
- Battle of Coruscant
At the time of the Battle of Coruscant, Dooku squared battle against Kenobi and Skywalker once again in the General’s quarters onboard Grievous’ spacecraft, the Invisible Hand. The two Jedi thought they were on their way to save Supreme Chancellor Palpatine, who was actually Darth Sidious in disguise; the real goal of Sidious was actually to make Dooku a required sacrifice in order to attract a new disciple in Skywalker.
During the Clone Wars, Dooku clashed with Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker, on various occasions.
In a lightsaber combat with Anakin Skywalker abroad the Invisible Hand, Dooku lost both hands. The Jedi Knight then took Count Dooku’s lightsaber and than at the request of Darth Sidious (Palpatine) used the Dooku’s and his own lightsaber to behead the unarmed Dooku.
When Skywalker escaped with both Kenobi and Palpatine, Dooku’s lightsaber was left behind alongside Dooku’s corpse in the quarters of Grievous on the Invisible Hand. The General Grievous quarters were soon destroyed.
Inspiration for the curved-shaped Dooku’s lightsaber
The lightsaber handle’s unusual curved design was the outcome of earlier research into Sith villains. Dooku’s lightsaber is inspired by the pistol clutch of fencing’s light ejecting weapons, which, like the lightsaber’s curved shaped hilt, value elegance over power. Roel Robles, an art department assistant, was inspired by several Filipino weapons like: knives, spears and swords; one of them, the Barong, had a curved-shaped handle that gave the bearer a better grip.
Lightsaber fighting style of Count Dooku
Count Dooku was a master of the lightsaber in Star Wars. There are numerous lightsaber users and warriors in Star Wars but it comes to one-on-one battle no other combatant could compete with Count Dooku.
1. Shien
Shien is a variant of Form V that specializes in more accurately deflecting blaster bolts and reflecting them back at their source. It is intended for use in blaster bolts situations. Djem So, the second Form V variant that emphasizes strength and counterattacks in lightsaber duels, was Anakin Skywalker's area of specialization. But it wasn't Anakin's use of Shien that prevented him from defeating Count Dooku on Geonosis; rather, it was Dooku's proficiency with Form II, Makashi, which was better suited for lightsaber duels.
2. Makashi
Form II, also regarded as Makashi, is the form Dooku has mastered. It predates the invention of blasters and was one of the first types established. It was created to compete against other expert saber users, with a focus on battling every type of saber at the time. It has remained one of the most exquisite forms of warfare, and its decorum complements Dooku well.
Makashi advocated for the economy of motion over strength and frenetic movements. The style emphasized speed and accuracy, and it was designed for those who just desired to hit one time and strike true. The form II dependence on parrying was the backbone of the technique, allowing for such rapid and precise assaults. A duelist would have a better chance of landing a decisive attack if they learned to parry with a saber. That is the reason that Dooku is frequently seen waiting for a bash and leveraging rival’s momentum and force against them.
Strength and Weakness of Makashi
Makashi's precision and commitment to lightsaber combat are its strongest points; many Jedi were not taught to effectively counter this skill set. Due to his expertise in Form II, Makashi, a form designed for lightsaber combat, Dooku was able to defeat a less skilled Obi-Wan Kenobi on Geonosis.
Makashi does, however, have some significant flaws. It is less effective in ranged weapon battles because it is not well suited to deflect blaster bolts. Makashi can also struggle against opponents who rely on overwhelming strength and aggression, like Anakin Skywalker, who uses Djem So, a variant of Form V that emphasizes powerful strikes. Because it relies more on skill than force, it is susceptible to strong, constant attacks; as a result, Dooku's defenses were eventually overcome by Anakin's strength.
Dooku’s lightsaber First On-Screen Appearance
In addition to being Dooku's first on-screen appearance, Count Dooku's lightsaber also made its first appearance in Star Wars: Episode II: Attack of the Clones. In Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith, it made a comeback when Dooku kept using his recognizable curved-hilt lightsaber in battle.
Furthermore, Dooku's lightsaber was used in the animated movie Star Wars: The Clone Wars and the television show of the same name, in which Dooku was a key figure during the Clone Wars. The lightsaber also made an appearance in The Clone Wars Legacy, an incomplete collection of Clone Wars series storylines that were later turned into comics and novels.
So, while the lightsaber appears in a variety of Star Wars media, its first on-screen appearance is definitely in Attack of the Clones during Dooku’s debut.
Other Appearances

The following are some of the prominent appearances are Star Wars: Galactic Defense, Galaxy of Heroes, Battlefront II, the Clone Wars Films, Episode II-Attack of Clones, age of republic- Count Dooku 1, Dooku: Jedi Lost, 5- minutes Star Wars Villain Stories.

FAQs
Q: What color was Count Dooku’s lightsaber when he was a Jedi?
A: In Jedi order, Count Dooku, as a padawan, had a blue straight hilted lightsaber. However, as a Jedi Master, left the lightsaber he had wielded as a Padawan in order to develop a superior one. After becoming a Jedi Knight, Jedi Master Dooku built his unique lightsaber. After he abandoned the Jedi Order, he took his lightsaber and transformed it into a Sith lightsaber, by substituting a red synthetic gem for the original blue crystal, the blade’s cutting power is increased at the sacrifice of mobility,
Q: How does Count Dooku hold his lightsaber?
A: The curved shaped hilt of Dooku’s lightsaber allowed it to fit better in his hand, allowing him to manipulate the blade with greater skill and precision. Count Dooku when fighting with one hand holds his lightsaber onto the part of the hilt above the curve i.e., the part closest to the blade. A magnetic adhesion plate was hidden below the fabric covering of the handgrip, securing the weapon to Dooku’s belt when not in use.
Q: Why did Yoda hate Count Dooku lightsaber?
A: When lightsabers were first invented, they were intended to be used to defend against blaster shots. Bent hilt lightsabers were created to allow for more precise blade movement. Form II was also created for lightsaber vs. lightsaber battles. Now, when Count Dooku arrived on the scene, both the bent hilt and form II were considered unbalanced due to the prevalence of blasters, but Dooku purposefully constructed his lightsaber for lightsaber warfare.
To put it another way, it wasn’t only the design. It was the weapon’s intention. Dooku desired a weapon capable of killing Jedi. He saw them as second-class citizens, and many of them succumbed to his blade. In short, when Dooku bases his lightsaber hilt on early dueling saber in an era when the only foe you have an advantage over are other Jedi, it’s easy to see why Yoda hated Count Dooku’s lightsaber.

Q: What lightsaber form does Count Dooku use?

Makashi advocated for the economy of motion over strength and frenetic movements. The style emphasized speed and accuracy, and it was designed for those who just desired to hit one time and strike true. It has remained one of the most exquisite forms of warfare, and its decorum complements Dooku well.
