MacGuyver was a Jedi?

Introducing the Swiss Army Penchuku Sabre!

This ingenious device provides all of the following:

  • Pen
  • Sword
  • Light Sabre
  • Nunchuku (which is really just another pen, tied to the other one with string. But it’s a really hard pen.)
  • Fishing Pole
  • Corkscrew (but it’s a light sabre cork screw)

Many thanks to Atticusser and MtyThor for providing the inspiration for this invention.
