Sometime between 29 and 22 BBY, while training, Anakin Skywalker asked his master why lightsabers are the only weapon that Jedi use and why they haven't created weapons such as Kiber Spears or Kiber Blasters, to which Obi-Wan Kenobi explained that Kwagun Jin had perfectly answered that question years ago. Obi-Wan stated that the reason why the lightsaber is the only weapon that Jedi use is due to how the Jedi wish to be seen and how that ties into the central mission of the Jedi Order. Although the Jedi do have unique Kiber weapons sealed in the Jedi Archives, lightsabers especially reflected the Jedi's mission as anyone can fire a blaster, but very few can wield the lightsaber skillfully, and those across the galaxy know this to be true. Additionally, Obi-Wan explained that the lightsaber symbolizes the care and the Jedi's approach when wielding their force powers, reminding others that although the Jedi could do more, they very purposely do not. Moreover, the lightsaber is a weapon with limitations and difficulties, and that every injury or death in inflicts must be precisely chosen, signifying to the galaxy that the Jedi are protectors rather than destroyers.
