A magna-glove pulling Luke Skywalker's lightsaber
A magna-glove was a type of glove that could strongly attract and magnetically adhere to metals. Shortly after the Battle of Yavin, a thief on Nar Shaddaa used their magna-glove to steal Luke Skywalker's lightsaber out of his hand from across a room.[1] After a brief chase, the thief latched onto a passing spacecraft, however Luke managed to Force jump and grab hold of one of the thief's legs. The magna-glove was not strong enough to hold the weight of both their bodies and as a result it shorted out, causing them to fall.[2]
