In The Mandalorian season 3, episode 2, Bo-Katan came to Din Djarin's rescue when he was defeated by a crab-like cyborg on Mandalore. Many viewers suggested Bo-Katan had inadvertently reclaimed the Darksaber, because she defeated the enemy who bested him.
The Dark Saber (as of writing this) is currently in the possession of Bo-Katan Kryze. She attained the Dark Saber through a technicality because she defeated the one that had bested Din Djarin.
What happened to the Darksaber after Mandalorian season 3?
Finally, the Darksaber runs the same luck as Moff Gideon himself: an Imperial cruiser manned by Axe Woves crashes into the base and explodes. The mythical saber and Gideon disappear into the flames, while Bo-Katan finds her way to her proclamation as Mandalore's leader.
Bo-Katan lost scores of loyal soldiers in Gideon's surprise attack, and now the Darksaber itself has been destroyed. Even if the Armorer could have repaired the hilt after it was crushed in Gideon's super-strong fist, we assume the massive explosion from the falling ship obliterated what was left.

Is there a second Darksaber?
It is important to understand that the Darksaber is a unique weapon, not a style that can be imitated. That accounts for its rarity in the Star Wars universe—there is literally only one in existence. Tradition holds that the Darksaber can be won only by besting its owner in combat.
The very first owner of the Darksaber was the man who created it, Tarre Vizsla. Very little is canonically known about Tarre Vizsla, other than the fact he lived during the Old Republic era and was, at that time, the only Mandalorian to have ever been accepted as a Jedi.
At the time of The Mandalorian story, it is pretty clear that Moff Gideon is not a Sith Lord even though he has the Darksaber in his possession nor does he have any links to the Jedi. Moff Gideon is nothing more than one of the Empire's existing bad guys who officially worked for the Imperial Security Bureau.
Because the Darksaber's sentience intertwined its fate with the rulers of Mandalore, Mando's rejection of that role meant that their wills could never align. That's why he has so much trouble wielding the weapon: it doesn't want to be wielded by a selfish bounty hunter who doesn't care about Mandalore.
Maul wielded the Darksaber on Dathomir. After Maul returned to Dathomir to help Mother Talzin regain her physical form, Maul was confronted by Sidious and Grievous at the Nightbrothers' village. He, along with Talzin, who had possessed Dooku, fought Sidious and Grievous.
The Darksaber may be a fearsome weapon, but it cannot cut through beskar, which is the most resilient metal in the Star Wars universe and also Mandalorian-made. It is currently unknown if the Darksaber hilt is imbued with beskar, which would make it even more mighty in the eyes of the Mandalorians.
Answer: Yes, the Darksaber contains a Kyber crystal, which is its power source. Like all lightsabers, the Kyber crystal within the Darksaber focuses the weapon's energy on producing its blade.
Still, Bo-Katan is the better wielder. In The Mandalorian season 3, episode 2, Din struggles to use the Darksaber against Alamite raiders. Bo-Katan later uses the Darksaber against a frightening crustacean cyborg scavenger, and she has no trouble wielding the blade and slaying the foe.
Sabine found the Darksaber on Dathomir and used it in her mission to free Mandalore from Imperial rule. She later gave the blade to Bo-Katan because she believed Kryze was better suited to lead the Mandalorians, and also felt guilty about her involvement with the Empire.
Dave Filoni, a Lucasfilm creative, explains that the Darksaber is not necessarily more powerful than a typical lightsaber and its old age could make it less powerful. The main difference between the Darksaber and lightsaber is its design, with the flat blade of energy being a unique "Mandalorian twist."
After Sabine observed that the Darksaber is deceptively heavy, Kanan explained that energy follows through the blade, with the wielder directing its current of power. The wielder's thoughts and actions flow into the Darksaber to fuel this energy, affecting the weight.
Ironically, the more Din Djarin uses the Darksaber the greater those issues likely become, because he knows this weapon should be used by the ruler of the Mandalorians - and he doesn't feel up to that task.
Din Grogu (/ˈɡroʊɡu/), colloquially referred to as Baby Yoda, is a character from the Star Wars Disney+ original television series The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. He is a toddler member of the same species as the Star Wars characters Yoda and Yaddle, with whom he shares a strong ability in the Force.
He was afraid of meeting the legend that was Luke Skywalker. At this point in Star Wars history, Jedi were still scarce, so when he heard that a Jedi was there, he must have known exactly who it was. To an Imperial officer, this Jedi did nothing but inspire terror.
They were originally led by Darth Maul (who claimed to be the one chosen to seek out Revan's descendant) until he "stepped down" when he took Ezra (who was revealed to be Darth Revan's descendant) as his apprentice and appointed him Mandalore and the offical leader of the Revanchists under the name Keneh Heru (when in ...
The black lightsaber, or Darksaber to give it its proper name, is one of the rarest lightsabers in Star Wars canon. Despite its rarity in canon, anyone who has seen the second season of The Mandalorian is likely to be familiar with the Darksaber.
Ahsoka's white lightsabers first appeared in the TV episode "Fire Across the Galaxy", the season one finale for Star Wars Rebels. According to Dave Filoni, one of the show's creators, the lightsaber blades are white to reflect her non-affiliation with the Jedi or Sith.
This is why we got a Darksaber and Mandalorian lore-focused episode inside The Book of Boba Fett. Boba Fett is present there as a Mythosaur part of the prophecy and the one who won't have any problems wielding the Darksaber. It's all about Boba, not Din.
