So you have a rather long weapon, and you don't have the Bag of Holding or any sort of Hammerspace to store and conceal it. What to do? Make it retractable, thus concealing it and possibly making it small enough to be stored without any problems. In the 21st century, this trope has had decent overlap with the Carry a Big Stick and Lawman Baton tropes, thanks to the invention of the expandable baton (also known as collapsible, telescopic, extendable, tactical and spring cosh baton). Although it's not exactly exclusive to law-enforcement or security detail, as these can also be seen in the hands of civilians for self-defense, or even criminals! Sub-Trope of Impossibly-Compact Folding. Typically, any type of Blade Below the Shoulder, Laser Blade, Sinister Switchblade, Telescoping Staff, or Pile Bunker is this trope. Compare Shapeshifter Weapon, where a character that can shapeshift can create many weapons from their body, Morph Weapon which is a weapon that can take different forms and Person of Holding. See also Idiosyncratic Mecha Storage, IKEA Weaponry, Fuuma Shuriken, Sword Cane, Bifurcated Weapon Sleep-Mode Size, and Wolverine Claws. Contrast with Collapsible Helmet. |

Several weapon classes in Monster Hunter are packed up when put away: Heavy Bowguns are usually so big they're carried in a collapsed form. Weapon drawing therefore takes a lot longer because you have to reassemble the weapon. Gunlances and Bows are stored similarly folded in half. Lances and some Insect Glaives telescope into themselves a bit. Switch Axes reconfigure themselves to be as compact as possible. |

Angel: The titular character used single retractable arm blades on each forearm—notable in that they were wooden stakes specifically for fighting vampires. He tended not to use them in later series though when the show moved away from its original detective-style. Wesley Wyndam-Price had one in later series after he Took a Level in Badass. Special mention as it could function as an 'assassin' style short blade or fold out into a fully-fledged longsword via an 'unfolding' method that was one of the cooler special effects to appear on the show. |

On Final Fantasy XIV magitek weapons often retract into compact forms when not in use. The boss of the dungeon "The Swallow's Compass" Qitian Dasheng is based heavily on Sun Wukong from the Journey to the West example above. Whether he extends or retracts his staff gives away what his next attack will be. |

Dungeons & Dragons: The Shrink Item spell can be put to this usage, turning weapon into apparently inoffensive trinkets until a command word is spoken. It can also be rendered permanent, although theoretically it doesn't work on magic items.note Though nothing prevents a spellcaster from casting the spell on a weapon, rendering it permanent, and then enchanting the weapon. The Savage Species splatbook introduces "Hideaway" weapons, which magically fold up on pressing a stub, leaving an inconspicuous and easy-to-hide cylinder fitting in the palm. |

Popular in Space Engineers; retracting weapons into your ship allows you to hide your ships true capabilities and protect them from damage, but it requires enough internal space for the mechanisms (pistons, rotors) to actually move the weapons about, and it's possible for damage to jam up pistons leading to the nasty situation of a jammed rocket launcher firing straight into the innards of your ship. | |

In ThunderCats (1985) and its 2011 reboot, the Sword of Omens' default size is a dagger/shortsword. When its wielder utters a battle cry to unleash the power of the Eye of Thundera (also known as the Warstone in the reboot), the Sword becomes a longsword. The 2011 reboot explains the Sword's small default size: Mumm-ra destroyed a star system to create the special metal capable of channeling the Warstone's power. When the blacksmith forged the Sword of Plundaar and its matching gauntlet out of it, a bunch of small shards fell in the process. The Sword of Omens and the Claw Gauntlet were forged from those shards. | |

New Vindicators: The wizard/super-genius Jason Lamperouge crafts a magic sword that can cut through steel and when not in sword form, resembles a small cross (as in two perfectly intersecting lines, not a Christian cross) that he wears on a neckchain. It is called the Pentacle of the Blade and it extends when he speaks the word 'tonedo' which roughly means 'to shear.' | |

Pops up quite a bit in the Batman franchise, mostly thanks to the fact that most of the Bat Family are a technological geniuses and that Bruce has the money to spend on creating all sorts of gadgets that they an easily store in their utility belts. His famous Batarangs tend to be retractable in some media like in The Batman and Batman: Arkham Asylum mostly for ease of storage in his iconic utility belt. Tim Drake whom was Robin III and Red Robin III, usually fought with a collapsible/extendable staff as his weapon of choice to fight crime. By extension his long-time romantic partner Stephanie Brown: Batgirl III picked it up after he accepted and trained her in staff combat. |

BattleTech: The Retractable Blade is a melee weapon that is Exactly What It Says on the Tin. Though it's not actually a weapon so much as a tool that was added to some battlemechs for use as an Improvised Weapon. There are also some mechs that have fluff regarding some of their weapons being retractable, but this is purely flavor text that has no impact on gameplay. | |

In the original Underworld movie, werewolf leader Lucian carries a very long, very spiffy retractable arm blade hidden in the right sleeve of his Badass Longcoat. The mechanism to move and store the blade is never shown, which is probably for the better since the blade alone is longer than his forearm, making the whole design pretty much useless for everyday use if not for the Rule of Cool. | |
