This magnetic goose is the personal assistant you never knew you needed
But that’s not all—amusingly, the magnet boasts a weight capacity of one pound. So, it can also hold a knife or even a pair of scissors, without losing its balance. There’s also a 9-inch tall variant which comes with a smaller magnet for holding lighter items. To top it all, each goose comes with a red bow and bell for no extra cost.

According to the seller, the design is based on the 3D model by Sketchfab user Nitomatta. There’s also a printable version of the model courtesy of Thingiverse user Gynni. So, if you have a 3D printer, then you may simply make one for yourself. But of course, you can always order one online for your convenience.
