I know this is old but i feel like having my say and outting forth my own view on this .

1. Exar kun. He was a master of all the traditional forms ,a tactical genius ,used a unique saber that gave an added element of surprised and was noted as being nearly unbeatable untill his inevitable demise.

2. Mace windu . Struck a balance within the force when fighting he was able to soak in his foes negative energy and power and release it into his furious form VII style,vaapad . He was extremely adept at enhancing his physical strength ,speed and even harden his hands to punch and kick clean through droids He defeated darth sidious in the duel only to be slaughtered while off gaurd . A feat not even yoda could manage .
and finally he created his own style of saber combat .This only adds to his apparent knowledge of duelling .

3.Count Douku. This man was extremely talented and needs nothing but his skill with makashi to the him the third spot . Unlike the others the ability to increase physical attributes or a tricky lightsaber need not come into it . His mastery of his style is unparalleled in any form . His elegant deadly form II style was fast ,precise and utterly intricate. Probably the greatest pure duelist of all time this man was able to remain one of the best well into old age ,defeating obi wan ,anakin ,holing back the whirlwind of grand master yoda i can only imagine how these would of played out had he had his youth . He was olso a very tactical man and always waited patiently for his advantage. His lightsaber was perfect for his style , the curve granting better leverage ,faster transitions and more accurate strikes . He defeated so many great jedi while he was well past his prime . Great swordsman.

4. Tulak hord ,now we dont have much to go on but lets look at what we do know of this legendary figure . He was well known for his mastery of combat and dueling in a time where masters were great . He is said tohave laid waste to jedi sieges single handedly . Sid to have killed over a thousand jedi in battle . I f thats anything to go by he deserves a place on this last

5. luke skywalker , we all know why he's on here . He was the shien and djiem so master that defeated darth vader with merely a few years experience and saved the galaxy from the insidious emperor . Luke is the man .

6.yoda , we've all seen this little green acrobat in a fight . Its nothing short of inspiring . He fought sidious, beat douku narrowly ,performed many feats of valour during the clone wars with saber in hand . Master of ataru ,grand master of the council . I give him this place with valid reason . (the reason he's below douku despite beating him is simple . Not only is his species blessed with longevity unlike douku who was old and slowing when they duelled but styles can make up for skill . Ataru is possibly the best style to fight Makashi with)

7.Obi wan kenobi, "the master of soresu "in mace windus words .No other jedi held so true the title of jedi knight as obi wan the negotiator .
But he was also an incredible swordsman . Favouring defence over anything else as a jedi knight and defender of the peace should . Defeated Anakin , greivious ,asajj ventress, darth maul as a padawan and forced maul and savage opress to retreat in the same fight ,was able to stand amidst a swarm of blaster bolts unlike any other jedi had attemted and deflected an parried every single shot . i want to put him higher but i shall refrain . My personal favourite character of this era. Jedi knight in its truest form

8.Darth vader /anakin skywalker, i think he was underated and overrated both . He was over rated as the chosen one then became underrated when people realised he didnt reach his full potential . But he was still an incredible combatant . Like his son mastered djiem so and shien , his physical stature was impressive and he defeated douku and many other formidable opponents such as asajj ventress.

9. Raskta lsu ,she mastered all forms of lightsaber combat and was recognised as the best of her time by the jedi order .Although her mastery of the force was poor .She fought darth bane and beat him only to be defeated by a force wave that knocked her on her arse. But all in all no man nor woman of her time was as masterful with a blade or two. She was the absolute bomb on tython showing off her skills with incredible finesse ,speed,precision ,strength . well deserved to be on here .

10.Darth sidious . Fought yoda , defeated kit fisto , held his own against the formidable mace windu , defeated savage opress and darth maul at the same time . Although like yoda his strength lies in his force wielding more than saber wielding some of these victories took some degree of skill with a saber.
