Its amazingly coincidental that you just released this video. I was going to reach out to you about this! My dagger was coming together surprisingly well. I had just inset my teeth. I used these great looking dusky shark teeth. I was not aware how fragile the teeth were as they felt strong but I broke a root off one just trying to apply a little pressure to inlay it. I had to kinda change up my spacing to accommodate breaking one & its not too bad but now im terrified to attempt to drill the holes for lashing. I feel like if i break another tooth, ill habe to pull them all out & find different teeth. I only had about 9 of these dusky shark teeth & if i lose another ill have no more to replace it or match! Where do you aquire teeth?? I have a collection of ones ive found & come across but it took me forever to get enough that are matching enough in size, shark type & color and now im one break away from botching the whole project. I have a handful of tiger shark teeth but theyre all small & too small for dagger... Very long winded comment to ask, where do you get your teeth? Yours are all clean & white & seem to all match perfectly! Mine are a hodgepodge of colors & sizes & shark types! Like i said, now im at a point where if i break one more tooth it could ruin my dagger!

you are the first channel i have found doing tests on these kinds of weapons

I have been thinking about making one with teeth made out of metal!

it looks even better with the battle damage

how good would it cut a pool noodle

holy moly this is very informative, thank you :D

I cant remember where i heard it, probably some old school documentary. What about filling the teeth with a resin or sap to fill in the hollow areas.

That'll still break bones and rend flesh even with the teeth broken off (as you said).... be a medics nightmare to fix that kind of wound

😂 I have yet to sell my first shark tooth thing I made. And your videos are pretty awesome and inspiring. So imma smash (or try to smash) through a bunch of giant zucchini tomorrow with it 🤣 stay awesome and keep up the great work. Always cool to see your builds. 😎👊🏾🤙🏾🤙🏾

Give me my tooth brush back!

sorry to hear that ,i suppose there are a lot of others doing the same thing but i,m sure someone will buy it later .🤙mahalo terry

Why doesn't the song sound... there is something off

I left a comment with a bunch of questions on one of your more recent videos. This had alot of answers I was looking for as I attempt to make my first! I'm still curious as to what you are using for lashing?

Aloha from Maui! Im currently working on a knuckle duster but with a Marlin bill dagger. I found some great Dusky shark teeth that have great color & are almost a hybrid looking tooth between a great white & tiger. I came accross your channel while looking for some lashing techniques. Do you have any videos where you clearly show your lashing? Also, are you just using hemp twine for lashing & a thicker one for the lanyard? Also, what are you applying to the thread before lashing, the long nose bottle. Looks like a clear liquid. Then lastly, ill keep looking but curious as to how best secure the marlin bill for the dagger. I was thinking maybe wooden dowl pegs & sand them smooth? Curious if you have advice! Love your stuff, great videos too!

Beautiful.. btw i think i asked this but where do you get the teeth from?

do you sell unsold peacec ?

wow thats actually not bad im just curios how durable the wood is???but that is deadly sharp most budget steel couldn't do that...got to say pretty bad ass and thats coming from a mainlander

Every toi tells a story eh! Awe! I still think it is tino ataahua! Great challenge Matua! Mauri ora

Gorgeous piece despite all the bad luck🤙

It's still a beautiful weapon! I'd love to own it, but it's kinda pricey for me. I also make native American replica weapons, but I'm not as good at woodworking as you are. Good luck with that piece! I hope someone will buy it. 👍

wananei! the grain, marking and oiled result is tino reka! mauri ora Matua

Dude, you make some truly awesome weapons!

Excuse my ignorance, in Hawai'i we used Koa for alot of our weapons. What kine stuff was used in Samoa?

Outstanding!

Beautiful piece of art

Absolutely gorgeous

Love the work. It's totally beautiful. Is koa available anywhere other than Hawaii?

Each carving there design and placement all have specific meaning and purpose. Carvings are designated and completed at time of last use , for example 1 curl (an unfolding fern) can represent a person…etc etc im no expert in all the details but definitely something I’d like to pursue further. If the story of this Taiaha were to have continued any appropriate carvings would have been added accordingly. Thank my mum for teaching me something of our New Zealand history.

Badass!

Organic hybid of Axe & Club; wonderful craftsmanship.

Here on Big Island I am constantly inspired by the warrior history of the Island. Hope that I can earn enough money to create/craft replicas myself one day

What kind of wood did you use? It has excellent chatoyancy.

Now that’s a beautiful club

Dang this guy needs to be more popular

This looks cool

Very impressive workmanship! Very impressive weapon!

Yay "new" video lol, im so late.

Amazing content bro! Keep it up!!!! (not a bot i am a real person)

Love this piece

This is a really great build

i would call this wooden axe more then club

nice thing you make more unusual weapons ( unusual for europian ) i know nothing about fiji

nice music

Ataahua ehoa! Beautiful! Like the exploring with the whao, chisels. Like the curved straight pattern. Grains are so sweet too! Mauri ora!

I’d love to see you do a Marquesan club

Nice work

You make 💩 dumbed down versions of everything😂

I've always wondered what a Polynesian gunstock war club would look like...and now I've seen it on your wall! Have you ever thought about doing a Polynesian/spartan dory and kopis?
