13+ chopped off hands in Star Wars

In the Star Wars films, 13 hands (sometimes arms, though those include hands) get severed.

Removed hands in:
Phantom Menace – 0
Attack of the Clones – 2
Revenge of the Sith – 6
A New Hope – 2
Empire Strikes Back – 3
Return of the Jedi – 1

More facts – not in order:

Whoever chops off another's hand ends up having their hand(s) chopped off as well, with the exception of Obi Wan Kenobi (and a few minor others).

Obi Wan chopped off three arms and two legs: the first hands two were of men in bars, the third of Anakin Skywalker, along with his two legs.

Luke Skywalker gets a robotic hand, exactly like his father, after losing one because of his father. He also severs Anakin's hand in a later film. Also, he loses this hand again (after a duel with Lumiya in the comics), which he replaces with another prosthetic one.

In Revenge of the Sith, Anakin Skywalker chops off three hands.

Anakin Skywalker gets one hand removed in Attack of the Clones. In Revenge of the Sith, he gets another one chopped off, and is left with one robotic hand. But again, in Return of the Jedi, he loses another hand – his third one! Moreover, in the comic books and other books, he loses at least 5 hands!
