War Club (head) 1st pic of the head on a handle
Ed Brooks:
I'm going to try to make a club. I have got one head done and need to mount it on a handle. I have seen some talk about mounting these type of heads. However other than use raw hide, I am not sure how I'm going to mount it. Have any of you made one of these? How did you mount it? Any pic's ? Idea's? Thanks for looking. Ed
I cut an over sized knock in a piece of OS, slide the stone head in it and wrapped it with leather, I will change this out with rawhide as soon as get some or make some. The head is in there (forgive the pun) solid as a rock. this would be a melon buster for sure. Thanks for looking, Ed
Parnell:
Wasn't Seminolewind asking about that project? I'd search the flintknapping link...
I recall the conversation was mostly about rawhide use...
Good luck and good lookin' doggie! :)

I have seen hammers and axe type heads made tapered and put in a hole in a limb so that the more you hammered it would get tighter. Bob
