It will do you no good to get into a duel with a villain at 10,000 feet unless you have the super strength or weaponry to win the fight. After all, if anyone is equipped to manage a battle without weapons, it’s the Jedi. Whether or not you can reasonably call a Jedi a superhero, there can’t be a downside to wielding a real lightsaber capable of cutting through a metal door (eventually).
The Hacksmith Mini-Saber is based on a prototype made by YouTuber James Hobson. Hobson’s original saber was full-size and intimidating in every sense, particularly in the $40,000 sense of what Hobson spent making it. It burned propane at 4000 degrees and would cut through a steel door given enough time (and probably through your arm much faster). Indeed, it was beyond full size because it required an enormous backpack loaded with a steampunk array of tanks, gauges, and copper tubes. When it came time to produce a product within reach of consumers and the limits of liability insurance, Hobson built the Hacksmith Mini-Saber, a butane-powered torch with a 4-6-inch flame.
Today’s production model functions more like a grill lighter than a weapon. You certainly don’t want to whip it out when overmatched, lest you look like Malcolm Reynolds bringing a dagger to a swordfight in Serenity. But there are other ways to use weapons, and while we won’t suggest any, you can probably imagine a few. And, anyway, even super-grills need to be lit.
