The Branch Holder will turn little Johnny into Zorro. Photos: Naama Agassi
Opinion on Naama Agassi?s Branch Holder could go one of two ways. You could dismiss it, clucking like an exasperated aunt, calling it useless. Who needs a gadget to hold a branch after all?
Or you might take one look and wish that Agassi had made this 30-something years ago, when you were a kid (if you?re as old as me, that is). The Branch Holder is a rubber strip with two holes. You thread it onto a suitably straight stick and that stick instantly ? and magically ? becomes a sword, turning an otherwise average kid into a swashbuckling pirate, a samurai warrior or even (gasp) a ninja.
It also offers a measure of protection to the knuckles of dueling children, meaning one less scrape to clean up after a scrap. Sadly, Agassi?s invention is a concept design only, but that shouldn?t stop you. After all, anyone with enough imagination to believe a stick can be a sword has enough imagination to raid the kitchen and chop up some Tupperware.
