Grappling hook/Legends

A grappling hook was a device used by individuals in order to mount large objects, swing across chasms, or ensnare others.

The Jedi of the Galactic Republic were commonly equipped with grappling spike launchers during missions. These liquid-cable launchers were developed by the quartermasters at the Jedi Temple on Coruscant. They were also standard-issue for stormtroopers of the Galactic Empire. Luke Skywalker used a grappling hook found in his stolen stormtrooper armor to swing he and Princess Leia Organa across a chasm on the first Death Star. Scout troopers were also equipped with fibercord grappling hooks.

The bounty hunter Boba Fett was known to equip his Fibercord Whip with a small grappling hook for use in capturing bounties.
