A Fish Whose Snout Is a Fully Drawn Sword
The blade runs clean through from snout to tail — the guard and pommel both have to connect for this pun to land.
✍️ All the weight rests on one line: the blade has to run through to the tail — guard, pommel, and tail fin all have to connect, and the pun collapses if any segment breaks. For any animal-plus-object mashup, work out how the object's line travels from end to end before piling on detail.

Full side view, 16:9 wide composition: a silver fish hangs suspended in clear water, its entire snout and spine replaced by the long straight blade of a polished sword. The blade tapers to a sharp point up front, its flat faces catching light so the metal unmistakably reads as a sword rather than a bill.
Just behind the gills, a small crossguard spreads outward where blade meets hilt, its two quillons sweeping to either side. The sword keeps running through the body so the pommel and wrapped grip become the tail at the rear, and the fish's fins rise straight out of that same silver structure.
Soft directional light rakes across the metal, laying a pale line down the blade and glinting off the guard and pommel, while the surrounding water stays still and unlettered -- no text anywhere in frame. The fish-and-sword sits complete within the 16:9 frame.
