<p>As our other <a href="https://boardgames.stackexchange.com/questions/29886/can-you-re-equip-equipment-to-the-same-creature">Can you re-equip equipment to the same creature?</a> question says, yes you can equip an equipment to a creature it is already equipped to.</p>

<p>However with Sunforger part of the cost of the ability is "<em>Unattach Sunforger</em>", this means that Sunforger will no longer be equipped to the creature it was equipped to prior to the ability being activated. This means that you are in fact <strong>not</strong> equipping the Sunforger to the creature that it is equipped to because the Sunforger is not equipped to any creature.</p>

<p>Say I have <a href="http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=sunforger" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Sun Forger</a> equipped to my only creature on the battlefield. Can I re-equip Sun Forger to the creature it is currently equipped to? That way I can tutor a card with only one creature card out on the battle field?</p>

Say I have [Sun Forger](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=sunforger) equipped to my only creature on the battlefield. Can I re-equip Sun Forger to the creature it is currently equipped to? That way I can tutor a card with only one creature card out on the battle field?

As our other [Can you re-equip equipment to the same creature?](https://boardgames.stackexchange.com/questions/29886/can-you-re-equip-equipment-to-the-same-creature) question says, yes you can equip an equipment to a creature it is already equipped to.

However with Sunforger part of the cost of the ability is "*Unattach Sunforger*", this means that Sunforger will no longer be equipped to the creature it was equipped to prior to the ability being activated. This means that you are in fact **not** equipping the Sunforger to the creature that it is equipped to because the Sunforger is not equipped to any creature.
