DMG

This is a shortish, thick wand about 1 1/2 feet in length
with an exceptionally sharp point on one end and a trigger mechanism
built into the opposite end, which is blunt.

The wand is usable by
any character except one of the cleric class, and can be activated in a
single segment. When the thick end is grasped firmly and the trigger
pressed, the tip of the wand becomes the equivalent of a dagger + 1
and the rest of the shaft blossoms into a round shield of buckler size
having a + 1 magic value.
The whole becomes equal to a spiked buckler + 1.
Because of its dweomer, it can be employed by magic-users,
but no spells can be cast when it is in buckler form unless the
possessor is a multi-classed character with fighter abilities in addition
to magic-user abilities. A thief who employs the wand's powers cannot
climb walls or perform other abilities requiring the use of his or her
hands while holding the device.
