Postman:
wow-that snakehead one is amazing. Thanks for sharing those! I always wondered about the physics / efficiencyof the really large bent gunstock in LOTM - great scenes, though.
Mechslasher:
cold steel is making a replica of both the ball and gunstock war clubs. they are suppose to be indestructible. i was thinking about getting a set just to play with. the gunstock club is a very efficient design for transferring energy, but it was originally invented to fool other hostile indians into believing the warrior carrying it really had a rifle. the spike was suppose to shine to look like a frizzen on a flintlock. at least this is what i've read about concerning the history of the gunstock war club.
