Electro knife

The Electro knife was a weapon provided to agents of the Space Security Service. It had a blade made from diametal, the hardest substance in the universe. In the handle of the knife was a Grauman power unit which, when switched on, the blade was sawn back and forth at high speed and could cut through inch-thick hardened steel. When thrown, it was propelled at the speed of a bullet.
