And off he went to the planet, Hurikane. According to him, he can see shatter-points in both individuals and events. This makes him particularly powerful against formidable foes. When he arrived, the natives there were aggressive and savage and subsequently attacked him. He was able to fight back but one of the natives fell off a cliff and shattered. And having a connection to both the Light and Dark, he saw the errors of his way.
He realized that killing the natives of a planet he just arrived at was not the way of the Jedi. And consequently, he reassembled the native that had just shattered. There also happened to be rare, purple crystals on Hurikane. The natives were so grateful to Windu for saving their friend that they gave him some of these crystals. And he was then able to construct the lightsaber he had seen in his visions. The purple lightsaber is a combination of blue and red, symbolism for using both sides of the force.
Windu fights with the light side. But, he is able to use the dark side to his advantage when necessary using his Form VII style of fighting. This gives him the upper-hand on most if not all opponents, aside from Palpatine anyway.
When Windu became a senior Jedi council member, he created a new lightsaber. It was the same purple color as the last lightsaber but had an electrum finish. It was built to higher standards of strength and accuracy. Windu wielded this lightsaber until his death. The lightsaber fell out the window before Windu plummeted to his death. Some believe that Windu may have survived his fall. Duros claimed to find the broken lightsaber and sold it to Senator Sauro.
In reality, Samuel L. Jackson just wanted to be able to point himself out in the middle of an epic Jedi battle, to which George Lucas obliged the request and ended up giving him the saber. Thinking in terms of the story, however, the answer is well-thought-out and very intriguing.
While wielding a blue lightsaber at the time he had visions of wielding a purple one. The saber of his dreams. And in pursuit of that, he asked the Jedi council for permission to search for it and was given it. Thus began his journey to Hurikane where he disassembled and then reassembled a native. The native gave him the crystal that would eventually power his amethyst-colored lightsaber.
A color that is both a mix of blue and red. At that point, Windu had all of the necessary parts to construct the iconic blade from his vision. In canon, the story is quite a bit different. Rather, all crystals start as clear and change once a Force-wielder bonds with them. However, most fans still rationalize his purple blade as representing his walk between the light and dark sides of the Force.
Windu was captured, while on a mission, and had his lightsaber taken away and disassembled. Then, while he was secretly, telekinetically reassembling his lightsaber, he told his captor about the experience of building his lightsaber for the first time.
Describing it as his first lesson as a real Jedi, he explained how he had trouble building it until he was reminded that he had to trust the Force to guide him in the process. In both canonical versions of the story, Windu's lightsaber color is intrinsically tied with the story of its construction, tying the sword's color to Windu's personal touch.
In addition to his purple lightsaber, Mace Windu also used Form VII saber combat, an aggressive fighting style often favored by dark side users, making his weapon even more distinctive in Star Wars canon. A part-time hobby soon blossomed into a career when he discovered he really loved writing about movies, TV and video games — he even arguably had a little bit of talent for it. He has written words for Den of Geek, Collider, The Irish Times and Screen Rant over the years, and can discuss anything from the MCU - where Hawkeye is clearly the best character - to the most obscure cult b-movie gem, and his hot takes often require heat resistant gloves to handle.
