Here’s something every fan of Star Wars and Japanese cuisine will need to add to their gift list – Lightsaber Chopsticks.

Lightsabers merge with Japanese culture and “Chop Sabers” emerge!  Suitable for eating sushi or defending the galaxy, the Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader lightsabers measure over 9” long, with the blades cast in translucent material.  The smaller “children’s size” Yoda saber measures approximately 8” long.  As a special bonus each set includes translucent Star Wars logo chopstick rests.

The utensils will arrive in stores in 2010, but those attending the San Diego Comic-Con and participate in the Chop Saber Duels, will take home a set as a prize.  I’m going to have to get me a pair of these so the next time we’re out eating sushi, I can whip these out and impress all the ladies in the house.  The only thing that would make these totally awesome, if if they would make that “vroom-vwoom” sound when you moved them around.
