Hey guys how are all you lovely geniuses today? ;} I'm curious, can you have a double-bladed lightsaber with a curved hilt? [(] Will it work or kill the person using it?

The physics would be really different. Not unworkable, just different, but you wouldn't have the same full range of movement that you would have with a straight hilt. The blades wouldn't counterbalance each other, either. Try taking a straight stick and a curved stick (or half a hula hoop, etc.). Swing each around, the straight one will be a lot easier.

You can, but I imagine it would look odd.

Thank you guys for the answers, I know that it would look different thats kind of the point. I would think Force ability could compensate for the different physics but I don't see why the blades can't be balanced I drew a picture of one and the blades cand still be strait and even. Mind you I can't draw well but it lookd plausible. I know it's possible for a single hilt. Anyway thank you again.
