Light-knife

A light-knife was a knife with almost the same abilities as a lightsaber, though they were mostly used to cut through various objects. The designs of these knives vary, but every Light-knife had the appearance of a normal knife, untill you switched it on. The blade would then emit about the same amount of heat as a weak lightsaber, and could be used to cut through objects like metal, stone, wood.

Some beings also used them as climbing tools. They would turn the light-blade on, slam it into the wall, then turn it off, allowing it to get stuck in the wall and the user being able to pull from it. They would then use a second light-knife and slam it into the wall, even higher this time. By then removing the lower knife by turning it off, dragging it out, then slamming it back into the wall above, the user could, in most cases, climb with the use of two light-knifes
