Well you obviously can't eat it

A plastic extendable walking stick with a built in radio

Or a handle off something
You're never alone with a Smartphone!

This is more likely to be used in an Office.
Not a gadget commonly used though.

Ok Wolfie, PM me and tell me what you think it is called :)

Ok you are on the right track so keep it coming.
Size is also about right.

Hint: Gadget as above is 'closed'

:)

P.S. and yes Wolfie has it.

I've seen a slidey thing like that on a vacuum cleaner handle... what about a letter opener, you slide it "open" and a blade comes out magically
