    I think your example of someone wearing a biker jacket would be more suited to the broadhead. The bodkin point, if I'm remembering my medieval archery design correctly, works by cutting 4 flaps into the material so the shaft can push them away like petals rather than punching through with brute force (field/target tip) or trying to slice a straight slit (broadhead). This is mostly useful against a stiffer material like metal, which is more difficult to deform. Leather is essentially still flesh, so any style of tip (as long as it's sharp and has enough energy behind it) will be able to penetrate, but as you showed in the ballistic gelatin, the broadhead cuts a channel for the vanes to follow, so a broadhead would allow for the deepest (and widest and probably most damaging) penetration.
    Short version: bodkins would be fine for self/home defense, but broadheads would probably be better unless you're expecting people actually wearing armor.

    • @combsmsb

      Unless you are talking pre-history, armor has always been a thing. As far back as ancient Greece people were wearing armor and carrying great big shields. Even native islanders used to make armor from tree bark and bones. Hunting tips have always been brittle yet sharp starting with flint knapping onward and they are generally easy and fast to make. War tips/ field tips have always been durable and pointy for punching through hard surfaces. Also the shafts of war arrows are usually WAY thicker than hunting arrows to deliver more kinetic force. you 'can' hunt with a war arrow but generally going to war with hunting gear was not effective.

    As I posted on the video you did about upgrading the Stinger, I found a simpler way to improve the cocking lever for those of us without your skills with woodwork, Joerg ;)
    25mm aluminium pipe, 3mm thick walls, so very strong but light, cut about 11 inches long, sanded internal end of it, and end of the crossbow lever, epoxy glued the pipe over the lever
    so it extends it making the stronger "tuning bow" WAY easier to cock, and, functions as a simple stock! :)
    wrapped pipe in black electrical tape to improve grip and lock cooler ;)
    added a common 25mm rubber end cap over the end of the pipe, easy to remove, plus you can store spare string or wax etc inside the pipe.

    At 16:13 16:49 17:46 17:52 17:54 and 19:05 there is definitely a lot of flex in the mechanism that holds the blade open. At one point, it looks like the blade is almost 30 degrees out of line with the handle. I think what is happening is when you thrust, you are applying force on the blade in the same direction it closes, thus working against the force of your hand holding the mechanism at the handle closed. Try turning the handle over in your hand, so that the force pushes the blade against the backstop instead of towards the closure.
    Overall a nice design, but I think a locking mechanism holding the blade open might be a good idea.

    17:44 be careful your hand is too close to the end, and every time you stab, the blade folds in to some degree (also in the end of the vindeo) , that handstopper you talked about is a good idea.

    The field tip penetrates soft tissue better than the bodkin. I’ve tested this and found it to be consistent.
    The bodkin might be better for getting through something like chain mail (validated by your results at 6:43), but once you’re hitting soft target the field tip goes deeper. (hurries to re-install field tips on the bolts that lack broadheads, as intruders rarely wear chain mail nowadays)

    Might you be able to do something like a liner-lock which is automatically disengaged if you release the action-handle? Or another racheting-mechanism, which can be unlocked by a steel-cable. Basically like a Nut in a Crossbow?
    So its locked when extended but still folds in when the Handle is released, so no stability issues when force is applied in closing-direction.

    Joerg...What if you put a small free floating weight inside the hollow bolt,of course when it is fired it will be in the back of the bolt but when it hits it will hammer forward driving the bolt deeper maybe...Just a thought...Thanks...From Kentucky USA...Your friend Steve Shoemaker...

    For the folding spear, i still think it will be better with some kind of crossguard. And that tools is nice but I still prefer (short) conventional spear that the tip is stable. We can always cover it with some kind of leather or even cardboard as it's scabbard.

    I think the bodkin penetrated the steel because of the triangular structure the full way round the arrow tip. Triangles are the strongest way to make things,hence why bridge supports are sometimes triangles. You might be wondering “then why didn’t the brow head penetrate?” Well it’s a lot lot more flimsier making it more of an animal hunting tip.

    A form of a "lock" when the blade is switched to engage to stop the thing from fighting your grip to keep it clamped down as well as thrusting the weapon. Likened to how foldable knives tend to feature a frame lock or system to stop it from closing on you unless you really wish to.

    This war tip would go through mail, early plate armor, most Yoroi (Japanese armor) and most Brigandines (late medieval scale armor (you typically see rivets on leather or silk, the house of Stark from GoT had it as their default armor). That's very impressive for such a small crossbow!
    PS: early plate armor was just 1mm as it stopped most threats! It also suffered from inconsistent heat-treatment. With heavy crossbows, longbow and obviously handguns, the armor became 2x as thick and heavily sloped, but in the end only the head and front plate could be made this thick without making the armor too heavy to be practical. This also explains why they are the last two pieces of armor many soldiers wore...

      I would argue that it is more effective then a bullet from a rifle (Okay arguably on that) or a handgun. I have both an AR and a Glock in my house for self defence but I personally think the Adder, when I buy it, will be my dedicated home defence weapon. The idea of not having to worry about killing my roommates or neighboors with a missed shot is appealing to me. Plus I think there would be a lot more mental stress on an attacker if he sees a crossbow bolt sticking out of his chest.

I already have tinitus, I dont need anymore lol..
      I would be much more comfortable with my glock since I have the more pracitce with it. I only shot my AR once so far. It shot great but I dont have much practice yet.
      cuz for me if I am in a situation where I need to defend my house, its going to be pure dark. I live upstairs with 4 other people surronding the walls and I have one living downstairs under my bedroom. By the time I notice someone breaking in and I get my weapon ready (Its by my door but still) the attacker is either going to be downstairs (and I am not going to go downstairs to clear it unfortunetly. Easiest way to get myself killed if the attacker is armed and dangerous) or he will already be upstairs in or around someone's room. I have ran the plan through my head a lot of times and its gonna be one tricky scenerio where if one thing goes wrong, someone is potentionally going to get seriously hurt.

Can you make a video that compares the Steambow Stinger Stock Limb vs Pro Limb, I want to know what is more practical for home defense, the laws are changing so fast here in the states I want to know the best option if fire arms become illegal, the thing to keep in mind, if they decide to make fire arms illegal, the bad guys will still be strapped. So power and time to get the next round down range is what counts

    The knife shouldn’t be a problem for the hands. You would operate it like a traditional spear. Only issue with spear technique, is that you need your palm to reach to the bottom of the stick on a spear for the best stabbing. This however in a country with laws that prevent spear use is so amazing in my opinion
    Here in Texas we can carry spears, double broad swords, or anything while walking in public so you may not see one of these around here.

    I liked the slash test because it shows that even some simple clothing is very hard to cut through without a very sharp weapon. It's not like in the movies where they do a slash through thick leather armor and kill someone. Not sure how much force, weapon mass, sharpness is required to deliver a slashing strike that cuts through leather armor and into flesh? I'm sure there are countless of tests showing this but haven't really seen any that comes to mind.

Fenris is very nice and i m pretty sure its legal cause bows are perfectly legal even compound bows.
