Captain Midnight Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 Just finished making a boarding axe, and I couldn't wait untill I get the Dragoon Pistol that I ordered, to add to the "Aresnal"..... Awesome, Patrick! How did you make your boarding axe? Great job! "Now then, me bullies!

Patrick Hand Posted July 15, 2007 Posted July 15, 2007 It's a "Throwing Hawk".... I attacked it with a grinder, and changed the shape of the blade, took off the black finishs, and cut two groves in the top wher the 3/4" langets fit in.... the langets are crudly inletted, and then riveted to the handle with 3 cut down nails as rivets.....

CrazyCholeBlack Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 That's my "woopin' Spoon" It's about as close to a "weapon" as I get but believe me, that baby can do some damage!
