k i updated it on the last post.
About 2 weeks i think. Or one, not sure.
Uhm... a sword that wears a paladin? or not correction, a sword that wears every paladin on the world?Description, The sword that wear every paladin
Anyway, my theme is: 'No matter how hard you try, you'll never find a use for this."
Starting with the Leprechaun on a Stick.
Never seen or heard of it... My reference was the normal Blizzard Tuskarr model. Could you post a link of it?
Final Entry#1The Kanabō
The Kanabō was a Giant spiked club made of Wood, Steel or Metal. Because of its sheer weight, only a few soldiers carried it. It was more of a mythical weapon, often used in tales by the great Japanese demons "oni" since the oni were extremely strong and could carry these mammoth weapons and so were feared by many superstitious people. Today there is a saying in Japanese that says, "Like giving a kanabō to an oni" — which means to give an extra advantage to someone already holding all the cards.Attached Images256 x 256

#2The Kusarigama
Kusarigama are interesting weapons which evolved from Kama; the farming sickle, to incorporate a length of chain with a weight at the end.
Kusarigama are a notoriously difficult weapon to master, but someone skilled in Kusarigamajutsu can use the weapon in a variety of ways, such as…
* Swinging the weight on the chain to distract or strike an enemy before moving in with the blade.
* Disarming an enemy at range by entangling their weapon.
* Entangling the enemy themselves.
* Striking a deadly or injuring blow to the enemy with the weight.
* Holding the weight and swinging to strike the enemy with the bladed end.
Kusarigama certainly added a whole new dimension to the Kama, particularly greater range.
Of course, Kusarigama from different regions and periods vary, but the most prominent difference is some Kusarigama have the chain attached to the upper-end of the weapon (usually on a loop on the near side of the blade, or to a hold made in the near of the blade) or to the butt of the handle. Differences also occur in the length of the blade, the size and shape of the weight as well as chain length.Attached Images256 x 256

#3The TessenTessen were designed to look like harmless and average folding fans or solid clubs shaped to look like a closed fan. They are on the contrary folding fans with outer spokes made of ion. Samurai could carry these to places where swords or other overt weapons were not allowed. Tessens was also used to fend off arrows and darts, as a throwing weapon, and in swimming.

#4The HachiwariHachiwari or “helmet breaker” was a type of blunt, knife-shaped weapon that looks like a jutte. The blade of a hachiwara was a curved triangular rod with a hook on its backside, making it easy to parry an opponent’s sword or hook into an opponent’s helmet.Attached Images256 x 256
