#zombie #weapons #challenge #tested
Shad's reaction when he sees Nate's flail was glorious. You can see him taking sanity damage.
If Nate's flail has some videogame legendary weapon name I'd call it The Kinetic Crusher.
@@derekcox543 No, no: *The **_Ki-ne-Krushᵀᴹ_*
😂😂
@@housemousemainGod bless safety tape. ;)
Why tho
Interesting side note; there's this idea in the zombie apocalypse subgenre that silent weapons are the best because there are *always* more zombies and you don't want to alert the hoard. Taking that into account, the saw-club has a rather unique drawback, given that the blades can ring loud enough to hurt the user's ears.
I was thinking about this during the video I was like holy s*** that would be a really bad weapon in the zombie apocalypse because you wouldn't be able to kill a zombie without alerting all the zombies nearby
@@darkblade51224 it only really rings when you hit metal on metal
Tyranth ring the dinner bell for the zombies.
@@stanboyd1 he literally flicked it with his finger in the video showing that it rings even with contact of flesh, cartilage, and bone
@@darkblade51224 yeah cause he flicked the side of the blade causing vibration. But when he hit the coconut, melon etc it didn't vibrate, at least not as much and therefore didn't make a noticeable ringing sound.
Interesting how Shad's scythe was purely a cutting weapon, Nate's flail was purely blunt force, and Tyranth's club was a mix of both.
Honestly, Shad’s can be both. If he held it reversed it would act like a Goedendag. Would almost suggest that as the main use against foes and use the saw blade as a tool for post-fight dismemberment.
yes true but i would also like to point out that Tyranths weapon is not the best at either . so which is more important? do u need both blunt and sharp? or do u want a specialized weapon that can do one thing really well? as good as the flail is i would pick the saw on stick cause zombies are very unpredictable and keeping distance while dealing damage is very important so i think the saw stick wins
@@AbdulAzeez-up4nwbut I wouldn't wanna be stuck with it in close quarters. The sawblade one is nice and short, I think it's the most reliable
Yes but considering that these guys know a thing or two about weapons they would have made something that is not ass
brute strength, precision, and balance
Genuinely surprised by how clean Shad sliced the water bottle.
On another note, I enjoyed this video, and once again shows why I like Shad having his crew with him.
It goes from just making a video, to making a video of tou screwing around and having fun with your friends who also share your interests.
Guys please do this again, it was so much fun. If revenue permits, up the budget and have some more time dedicated to it. I think Shad's scythe would be interesting to see with a few saw's stacked ontop of eachother and spot welded/bolted. Then take the teeth off and grind an edge on it if even possible. Great video!
Taking the teeth off the saw makes the weapon basically a brush axe, equivalent to a billhook, which is a fantastic weapon. I think it'd definitely work better to have a smooth blade instead of small teeth for sure. Zombies aren't going to care much about the tearing action, though regular human Raiders will.
They passed up the splitting wedge those things would be devastating just thrown at zombies
A saw blade either way with the shtick all the way to the end so it could also mount a spike.
I hoped he'd make a halberd. You put an axe blade and a knife on top, or sharpen the top to a spear-like degree. Really easy to make and rather effective
@@butwhataboutdragons7768 Yes! That's what it looked like in my head anyway (billhook). The teeth in my mind would get stuck in clothing more often and that's no good for pesky raiders. We want a clean chop xD
Definitely the Saw Axe. Wieldable one handed, so you can use a shield. Effective as a basic DIY and it's easily made deadlier by simply sharpening it. Easy to swap blades out and easy to carry backup blades.
Versus people shields are great but I feel zombies would simply latch on and make it a hindrance. Having a versatile weapon and using the additional range along with the possibility of having a hand free to manipulate objects and use improvised weapons and environmental advantages seems like a better option in a zombie world.
Though the Saw axe is quite loud on impact with anything and everything.
@@kirakyuti5946 at least it won’t cave your OWN skull in like the hammer flail will.
@@stingerjohnny9951 And at which point did i imply i was defending the hammer flail? Unless the saw staff suddenly shapeshifted into a hammer flail then i never did.
@@kirakyuti5946 Oh I’m not implying you were defending it, I was just taking the opportunity to dunk on flails, as that is a noble and just thing to do.
What would work better for Nate's death Flail would be a thick motorbike chain. That way it's not so random in its movements and it's more of a controllable vertical strike. I'd love to see how it performs versus the regular chain
Would that type of chain stand up to the torque/ shear generated by use, though?
@@robertlewis6915 Apparently Matt Easton tried out a replica of an actual antique flail that used the same type of chain, so I'd at least say that someone else thought it was a good idea for a weapon.
A slightly lighter hammer head would probably help with precision too
@@jlan7844Todd from Todd's workshop made it for him.
@@stevene6482 I was thinking a glassbreaker when they were at the store. small hard point.
Shad's "Sawthe" looks like it would be a pretty good tool for cutting branches. I have some experience with that and most of the tools you can get for reasonable prices are weak and break easily. A saw bolted to a big stick? Not so much. I'll have to steal that design for science later
in the event of zombies you can probably just steal a shelf load of the saw blades as well. easy repair.
Whoever takes over Home Depot first in the apocalypse wins. Flail hands down. Coupled with a shield would be my choice of the three
And Walmart. Gotta have food and clothes.
Better make an alliance with the bass pro bros
@@dukefanshawe6815true that. Unless your chaotic evil and steal other people’s food
😂💯
I will just go in my shed & turn up a submachine gun on a lathe in 1/2 an hour.
I'm a former Fabrication, Mechanical & electrical engineer till my failed health so I will still having running water & electricity while most don't even know how to make soap.
Hygiene, water & food is more of a worry then mobs, zombies or some such hoopla.
I have about 20 gallons of water in drums I made up of food grade catering steel with 4 & 1/2 month of non perishable stocks as honestly I don't like leaving my house spending more time in my rose garden then anything of late reading a book in the day till the weather gets to my bones.
I think ideally for me... I'd have put Tyranth's sawblade design on Shad's polearm handle, and hopefully found a way to add a long topspike. Make it a poleaxe sort of deal.
Same thought. Givw it a spike, just need to pierce the skull, so cutting isnt as ideal as something that can split or pierce the skull. I'm on the Death Flails side for this alone
Even on the current one, adding a spear shouldn't be too hard: you already have two attachment points, I would mount a metal plate opposite the top axsaw blade and add a washer, then under the bottom axsaw blade. Then sharpen to a nice, hefty spearpoint! Then it becomes a shortspear-axsaw!
@@willowd2696 My main issue with the flail is that you would literally be better off just grabbing a sledgehammer than using one with the hammerhead on a chain :p
Other than that, yeah, blunt is definitely a very viable choice when fighting zombies. Smash heads open and no need to worry about your weapon getting stuck.
@@Arbaaltheundefeated Completely agree! If those three are the only options though I'd want something smashy smashy over something cutty cutty for zombie scenarios
Classic cylindrical spikes aren't a great option for piercing skulls. The bone can grip the spike and hold onto it. Struggling to dislodge weapons is a disqualifier in a zombpocalypse. Though I believe there are some shapes meant to prevent that.
Saw Scythe wins for me, for one reason above all. It's a polearm, and in a zombie apocalypse keeping distance is even more important than usual. Tyranth's might be a decent side arm though, it seems to me like a modern interpretation of a macuahuitl.
and Saw Scythe can be used to cut wood win needed
I favor the Saw Scythe as well
It’s a shit pole arm, a saw is soo flexible it won’t do anything if you try to stab with it , it’s not even that good as a cutting device ,,
Tyranths with a spike out the tip and back side on a longer pole would be best
@tymthurling8125 Yeah. A machete blade would have been better. It's sturdier, cuts better and still has saw teeth on the back edge.
Amazing video, I'd watch more of post-apocalyptic weapon-crafting competitions!
PS: I think Nathe's weapon would be lovely if the chain was shorter, the handle longer and maybe the hammer a little smaller (although shortening the chain may be enough to make it less top-heavy)
I think what the flail-like weapons need is a hand guard protector that extends downwards from towards the tip of the stick/pole part.
Something like a spiraling outwards metal piece could work.
That way the user could safely get leverage from further up for a moment and then retract the hand back once the flail is in motion.
The hammer chain a couple of links shorter on Shad's longer tool handle!
@@ccelik97It doesn't need to be that complicated, a simple ring to stop the top hand entering the rebound zone should be fine [edit] never mind, I see you want the hand inside that zone.
I was thinking the same. Something like a shortened hussite flail
@@DavidSmith-vr1nb Yeah lol [to your edit].
9:50 Congratulations Tyranth, you managed to create a zombie dinner bell.
"oh, you're approaching me?"
*zombie noises*
Same thought. *Ding Brains are done! Ding Brains are done! Ding Brains are done... And the rest of the Whopper song.
+300% threat level.
"Well, i created it, so it´s creative." ... omg, i´m dying!
I swear Nate, Tyranth and Shad are just three teddy bears being really passionate.
Very huggable
They're friend-shaped sword nerds
@@Sr_ECO this was the best thing i read today
Big teddy bears with sharp weapons
Someone's been playing a lot of Dead Rising 😂
Shad not gona like this :)
Really neat ideas. I would make the DeathFlail's handle slightly longer and the chain a bit shorter, to enhance control. The WarSaw is a fantastic cutter "out-of-the-box, so to speak. Add in a clip point so you could do some (limited to be sure) thrusting with it, maybe. The FallOut4RipOff might be improved by removing every other tooth. As they are, I'd take the RipOff for sheer versatility. With the suggested mods, the WarSaw would shine. The DeathFlail would be fantastic for someone more, ahh, muscular than myself. Great work, everyone!
I think the saw blade is just too wobbly to be used for stabbing. Without some reinforcement I dont think it would do the job.
Stronger than each of these weapons alone is the tactics available combining them. Shad's spearsaw would be great to trip up zombies for Nate's finishing smash, while Tyranth's bastardsaw is maneuverable enough to provide cover for any breaking through.
Honestly devestating combo
At first I read that as final smash
this is implying someone would want to be near Nate while he swings that thing around. let's be honest, a double pendulum for a weapon ain't exactly the definition of control.
@@anonymousmonkey9491
Agreed, yet that's where the polesaw would greatly help. First to provide a more stationary target for Nate's swing, and second to provide Shad safe distance from Nate's swing.
Granted, a sledgehammer would probably still be more effective, but at least the "flail" looks cool
I think tyranth's fallout double saw won over all. Just the smaller profile for ease of carrying, and overall use makes it a solid pick. Would love to see you guys try how effective they are against the tire armor!
Plus the ease of use. You'd definitely need to train with a flail to not knock your own teeth out (still not guaranteed), and using a spear-like weapon could be hard if you don't know what you're doing. You could hit walls with the other end, bang it all over the place. But with a bat? Just swing. No need for training, no tactics really needed. Aim for head, swing.
The problem with the saw blade one is how noisy it is. That's just ringing the dinner bell for zombies.
Only if the zombies can hear. If their senses are weak, they might not notice...
Also just don't hit metal. It was perfectly fine against fruit.
@@Amy_the_LizardWell, we all know how well zombies can hear.
Tyranth has learned to cast Booming Blade. 😜
@@RokuroCarisu Or Toll the Dead! Ha!
Shad definantly had the right idea, it was just his execution that was lacking. The most important things to remember when fighting zombies is to stay out of melee, and to disable them or destroy the head. Essentially, you want a halberd. Something that will keep them far far away that can chop off limbs and heads.
i think a handsaw blade is just too flimsy for fighting zombies, polearm is definitely a smart choice, just wrong type of blade, attaching a machete blade or something would be far more effective.
The logical step after apocalypse armor and weapons: Apocalypse vehicles!
Edit: Those scenes at the utility store just prove those places are like toy stores for adults.
Toy stores for men.
Mad Max! After all they are in Australia.
I absolutely loved this challenge!
Would probably have to go with the saw scythe, myself - primarily because it seems like it would be the most versatile to use as both a weapon and a tool, which would definitely make it more "valuable" in the apocalypse.
If you plan on doing more apocalypse videos, I would love to see the trope of sports equipment as armor really put to the test. Maybe put it up against the weapons that were crafted in this video, even?
I think the coconut tests may have been the most satisfying thing I've ever watched! Great weapons
With Shads I would suggest mounting so the "shtick" runs along the backbone of the blade with a blade in reverse too.
Nate needs to make a flail like a whip with multiple small chains and a longer handle.
Tyranth should add more blades and an end spike.
The production value and quality of these videos your guys are making just keeps going up! Love all this good content your guys are putting together for us
If you make a continuation to this, homemade swords would be cool. I’m curious how sharpened sheet metal welded to a bike handle or metal pipe compares to actual, professionally built swords
I don’t think “sword” would be the word, at most those could be considered Machetes
This video was really engaging and fun. The gags and building timelapses gave me mythbuster vibes. And you three competing with eachother with your own ideas made me very curious to see the ending results. One of the best videos I've seen on this channel in a while. Great work.
I love everything about the Functional Fandom videos theses days. The intro, the topics, the music, the montages, and of course the content.
Shad has EXACTLY recreated my favorite pruning saw, complete with the forward lean, long blade, and grabbing hook.
The flail would be more useful with half the weight of hammer head, and about 2/3 the chain.
The saw axe looks like the most likely of the lot.
I love the flail, though I wonder if you combined Shad's polearm length handle with the flail head, how more or less effective could it be? Certainly safer for the user.
It would be less, I feel. The longer the handle, the more torque the heavy end exerts on the user, meaning less control and less acceleration for the same amount of muscle put into moving it. You saw the difficulty of supporting it from the light end with the short handle; that difficulty is multiplied with length.
I want to see these up against axes, hoes, hammers and other stuff that you don't need to craft (but they ofc aren't made for combat)
Point being is all this crafting and modding worth doing if you get the same result with something you already have in your shed
Me too!
Well they made that joke at the beginning where they all went for the axe first so I think that is a pretty good sign of the effectiveness of it.
I like the saw safe because it has read. It looks more normal, but for self-defense the spinning wheel of death.
@@orcapodstudio-retronaut wut?
Should include the crowbar if they do.
This is the most educational of all your videos, Shad! For me at least. I've spent hundreds of hours in DIY shops & I'm almost always fiddling with the axes there.
Nate gets a point here. I mean, in a classic zombie apocalypse, the goal is to inflict damage to the "BRAIN" (at least when it comes to "killing" zombies). That flail would split one's head open like a watermelon. I would definitely add a longer staff and turn it into a kind of Hussite flail (harder to aim though).
In that case just get a hammer and spike and make a bec de Corbin
and in a classic zombie apocalypse the survivor using that is more likely to accidentally swing it into themselves or miss rather than actually hit a shambling target lol
@@MechaGriffin Not really as much of a problem as people make it out to be.
As long as the shaft is twice or more the length of the chain it's prefectly safe.
@@clothar23 of course safety issue fixed no problemo, in hands of trained person is deadly weapon, in hands of office worker is tool for faster journey to RIP
@@MechaGriffin Mate a pole arm length fail is no different from a wheat thresher. A tool illiterate peasants learned to use in child hood back in the day.
Are you telling me with the wealth of information available at our finger tips a modern educated adult can't equal that feat.
Educational standards haven't dropped that much mate.
Very cool video!
I really like how Tyranth’s weapon was both bladed and somewhat blunt and could be used either one handed or two handed.
"Hard to control", that's why flails used in war were primarily built for two hands over one; more control and easier for it to reach over shields, which is the flails big strength.
So truly a brute force
I love the war saw/Saw scythe/whatever. Especially for maintaining trees. Very useful.
The gang not wearing armor? What is this madness? That said, loving that jacket Shad.
Also the Fallout 4 circular saw and the saw/scythe both tie for my vote. The scythe would be the primary with the circular saw a good backup in case the handsaw blade snaps.
I am afraid it would, except if you fight against water bottles :)
I cracked up several times watching them shopping for weapon parts at Bunnings 😂😂😂
I'm really digging the black and red motif in everyone's gear.
Also was a fan of the war scythe. There are some handsaws that are reinforced that would have probably helped with the overall flex. I like keeping some distance and if need be a polearm could block up a hallway.
That saw club sounds AWESOME.
I still think the Scottish Claymore is the best sword to have for a zombie apocalypse.
*Quickenings sold separately*
Is that the only Highlander in recorded history that would get dumber with every accidental beheading because they're killing zombies?
Rather hard to find at your local hardware store though.
@@anvos658 Not in Scotland. Walmart has them there. 😘
@@steemlenn8797We don’t have Walmart here.
(Idk if that’s the joke or not)
@@Aaa-vp6ugAh, sorry, I wrote it really garbled.
It was a joke that you would find them in a Walmart (which you don't have), so it's your "fault" for not being in the "right" country.
I love the war saw scythe, just the way it went cleanly through that bottle
This is my first ever RUclips comment. Shad’s channel has inspired and impassioned me in so many ways. I look forward to every new video, especially the next Adventure Quest. Thank you guys for everything you do.
Against zombies, I think the best will be to mount the table saw saws on the long stick for increased safety distance.
I live in Texas. Not only do we have an ammo and gun surplus but we also have a surplus of charcoal, sulphur, and saltpeter as well as scrap metal. Infinite guns.
So long as there's someone around who knows how to make black powder.
@@brigidtheirish It’s not hard, just need proper measuring tool. Hard part is making the bullets.
@@shadowofhawk55 Oh, I'm sure it's not *if you know how.* That's the trick.
@@brigidtheirish I’ve never done it but I’ve looked it up and a recipe saved somewhere
@@shadowofhawk55 Cool. May find that it takes a little experimenting to get the ratios just right depending on the quality of the raw materials. When baking, just switching to a different brand of flour, same type, just, say, switching from Pillsbury all-purpose flour to Gold Medal all-purpose flour, can seriously affect the finished product. And that's using a standardized product. Taking raw materials out of the ground is going to result in a much wider range of purity and chemical consistency.
The dynamic between these three is awesome!
The flail wins because of pure destructive power: it killed the stone. The ripper saw comes in second. Safe but noisy, with less penetration than you would think.
The zombie pruner would have been better, if a machete or cutlass blade was added instead. It would have been the hands down winner. Shad shouldn't have goon so deep into the apocalypse theme.
I feel like I'd prefer the reach against an opponent who is generally dumb and slow.
Really exploit their weaknesses, you can probably get in multiple hits if need be
guys PLEASE make this a series, this was amazing!
The Double SawBlade Axe is very impressive!
Dunno if anyone's said this yet, but you can also make a bow with some high-pressure tolerant pvc pipe and some string. That's only about 20 dollars, plus some dowels for arrows to be around 25-30, a reasonable amount to spend on an apocalypse weapon.
Gotta go with reach in a zombie apocalypse. Shad wins, though I think there's room for improvement. A pole arm with thrusting, slashing, and bludgeoning aspects is what I'd work toward. Mount half a shear on a long shaft, maybe a ball of concrete cast around where the tang meats staff.
Whoa - like a homemade adapted bec de corbin! 😮 That'd be so awesome!
@@morgansmith1930 In my mind the poleaxe family of weapons are the ultimate in any situation.
The main weakness of Shad's scythe are the teeth since they can break or get caught on clothing when cutting someone
@@alargecookie Agreed! I love the glamor and trustiness of a good sidearm, but polearms - just the reach is 👌
Love each of these you guys made. Would have loved to see the circular saw weapon be done as a mace too (cut halfway through each one, put both halves together, hammer them into the top of the haft)
I would say the best would be a mix of shad's and tyrant's creations: long stick and saw blade
My apocalypse flail was made from a long piece of 1/2" galvanized iron pipe, a length of chain, and a padlock.
One idea I've wanted to try but haven't been able to is a wooden spear with a steel tip. Take a 7 foot long piece of closet rod, drill out the center about 4 inches down, insert a 6" long piece of 3/8" steel rod in the hole, sharpen the exposed tip, and taper the end of the rod.
The Warsaw cuts way better than expected.
The Death Flail taking chunks from that block earns high marks.
But I have to agree that of the 3 I would pick up the Fallout 4 Ripoff to smash zombie faces.
This was like watching an episode Top Gear, but with melee weapons. Love it.
very nice, i vote for a second video with new weapons!
The expression on Tyrenth's face during his slow-mo hitting the coconut is the look of a man who was promised pina coladas if he does a good job.
Been a while since I’ve watched a shadiversity video, but this video immediately grabbed my attention. The intro was really sick and the test footage was cool too. Of the weapons, my vote is on the Fallout saw club. Well done gents
That flail genuinely strikes terror into my heart XD
The video was preaty entertaining 😄
The risk of a zombie apocalipse would be the same with the "risk" of ending world hunger, but how about, just for the sake of it make an episode 2 with actualy good wepons you could make with items from hardware store.
Maybe a clawhammer head with a longer shaft or a billhook with a longer handdle, a axe handdle with nails, maybe you could get a shovel and cut some of the metal to make some kind of spear etc. 😉
I’d have made a apocalypse adaptation of a macohuitl. Take the axe handle, and attack razor blades to both sides of the striking end , and a spike for stabbing
I like how Tyranth's club rings rings like a loud dinner bell attracting more zombies
I love this type of content, mixing it with your actual historical know-how when it comes to weapons is awesome. My vote goes to shad for the saw scythe
Definitely partial to a mastered flail out of these three options. Kind of fell in love with the battle between the Witch King of Angmar vs. Eowyn, so I'm a bit biased even if the Witch King lost.
Nice job! I hope that we get to see more stuff like this. As for voting, I would probably vote for Tyranth’s weapon since it’s easy to carry/control, can easily be replaceable if the blades break (assuming that you have access to a few lying about), and effective. The other two could work, but I would have issues with durability and if I can hit my targets with it. But that’s me.
The death flail is my favorite. It SMASHED the competition.
I love how you have to go into the world undercover in normal clothes like superheroes. Keep it up gents!🤣
What a fun video!
I'm very surprised nobody made a goedendag. No need to sharpen it, easy to use and make, super effective in most scenarios.
Lol shad's face when he swings the scythe in the montage, has me rolling.
This is my favorite video on this channel so far. the idea is fun And the ending is superb and surprisingly funny. Not to mention educational. keep up the good work
As soon as he came out with that flail, he won before the contest even started. It is by far the king of zombie apocalypse DIY weaponry. If he upgraded that flail with a longer handle, it would be perfect.
They all are very viable, but I feel you could replace 2/3rds of them in the garden section alone.
Personally, give me a 3-foot steel pipe. Weight is light enough to carry with you always with enough heff and mass to swing. Crowbar if allowed premade tools.
Crowbar! All the utility of a crowbar and all the smashing potential of a mace
Crowbars tend to be overly heavy relative to length right? Not what I'd want to swing around all day.
Boring as all hell maybe, but just give me an axe any day of the week.
If I get a week of prep time before the apocalypse hits, I'll just go buy 10,000 rounds of ammo though.
I like the silent admission at the beginning that for $50, you'd be best to just get an axe. It's one of those things that is so affordable that apocalypse or not, just get one.
Stick good
That's a really strong mythbusters vibe for sure. I love it.
I've always felt that a Spear is best suited to a Zombie outbreak.
Take a pitchfork, remove all prongs barring a central one; you've got a decent short spear.
What a great Idea! I'd love to see another episode of this.
When i was a kid i would stick nails through boards and make spears with pieces of metal. I even made a shield with a piece of wood bits of punched steel strips on the edges. I even bought a handle and a strap to hang it on my arm.
The sound Tyranth's weapon made when it hit the door would attract an entire horde. XD
I think Tyranths would act as a dinner bell calling ever more zombies feed , a "cursed weapon" for the zombie apocalypse
Zombie Pruner for me. Mostly because I love spears.
And I'm loving the friendly rivalry that you guy have in videos like these. I gotta try something like that myself now.
Quite bold of nate to swing that around without any kind of head protection
as an aspiring blacksmith i gotta say I love your videos, very informative. I've always had a love for swords and very long knives and dangerous things, your videos are helping me learn what next to play at making in my forge
I remember ZGB really loving the buzzsaw bat and batchete cuz its surprisingly effective.
Fallout replica. Wielder of that weapon focused on the target. Shad's warsaw might threaten shrubs.
dude the videos have been actually so top notch lately, fucking brilliant guys!
Is no one going to acknowledge Shad just cut a water bottle with a fucking handsaw. And that cleanly. The man's a beast, that's some god level edge alignment.
The flail would likely be suitable to use from atop a wall, its nature making it ideal for downward strikes, and the danger if friendly fire is greatly reduced
Saw Club was the best in my opinion. Easy to use with little training, and very effective against the targets you're going to be facing in a zombie apocalypse.
and tyranth's weapon should be called like "melody of destruction" or something, that sound is the music to the ears in every literal sense
I like this format, after you create your weapons you each should come up with a challenge and the weapon with the most points at the end wins. You could make up rules on the fly to lower Nate score for no good reason and Shad could scream "POWER" a lot when he's hitting things.
The channel quality has somehow gotten exponentially greater even just looking back at this 6 month old video.
You've struck a truly perfect balance
Flail for the win, especially in an apocalyptic solo scenario the sheer crowd control capabilities of that weapon makes it top teit
Heavy duty machete/falchion, spear, pick. Whatever can get in a head while being easy to remove and not too exhausting to use.
The warscyth has an alternative use for cutting high branches during lawn care and area beautification.
i absolutely adore this video, great work as always!
2:50 Once upon a time shad had a caveman moment and said "You had stick! Stick very good!" in a video about nunchucks. This clip reminded me of that moment.
Dude, Tyranth's axe making the Ding sounds was like a budget Thor making lil thunders
One can easily make a very functional mace with hardware like this. Take a dowel rod and some pipe fittings or maybe some oversized hexagon nuts and you've got something close to what soldiers used in the trenchs during WW1 & WW2.
Tyranths saw mace axe thing definitely won
