Comments:
I only got a couple of these initially so I could see what they're like. I like them - good materials and
craftsmanship

Totally bad-ass, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
SOLD OUT at Brevard renaissance Fair! Apparently the photos and listing don't do this justice. The spike is SHARP and I was effortlessly sticking it in a log to show what a lethal weapon it would be. More coming soon.
