Does a lightsaber exist?

This article tells us about a new "lightsaber" created by the U.S. Air Forces and a technological business. This "lightsaber" is called Tech Torch. This tool is able to rip through half-inch steel bars in seconds.

It works through a combination of chemistry and physics. The heat generated by the Tech Torch is able to render steel in a molten state, and the force of the propulsion erodes the material. The heat generated can reach 4000 ºF in less than 2 seconds!

Opinion:

I think it's incredible how fast technology is progressing. 20 years ago the lightsaber was considered as a futuristic techonolgy that we weren't going to reach in this era. And look where we are now. We have created the prototype of a lightsaber. In my opinion i isn't going to be used as a weapon as we watched in the Star Wars saga. I think the U.S. Air Forces will use it as a tool. A tool used in emergency cases, emergencies such as  when they are trapped in a tank, or when they have to escape from somewhere...
