Pretty epic all around in my opinion! Thanks for sharing another make it real and spending the time needed to make it look accurate. From the way I saw you holding it it looked like it was at least like 40 pounds of weight maybe more that you had to swing around just to test it.

Oh my sweet James.....its okay, everyone gets it wrong.

[@nyquillusdillwad9119]

@@leonardhaworth5632 Eagle Claw is based on a macuahuitl. a weapon used by the Mesoamerican civilizations most notably the Aztecs. The obsidian blades, while extremely sharp were also very brittle and struggled to defeat metal armor worn by Europeans. Against unarmored opponents and animals it was very effective. The macuahuitl came in a variety of styles and spacing of the blades. The one requirement to become an elite Aztec warrior was to capture 20 men on the battlefield, so the broad flat wooden part was used for non-lethal subjugation. Sometimes the blades were left intentionally short and widely spaced apart so to deliver multiple nonlethal cuts, in order to wound but not kill. While these were pretty brutal weapons for the time period, steel swords still had a number of advantages including keeping a sharp edge and having a thrusting point that is better at defeating armor.

[@brolohalflemming7042]

@@nyquillusdillwad9119 yeh, there were a few variations. Most importantly, they tended to knapp the flakes used to make the 'teeth' (or sometimes, real teeth).

Well the power wasn't contained inside the weapon so that wouldn't be so much of a problem, as long as it wasn't extra low voltage. The LEDs certainly weren't anywhere near the most powerful you can find (even for LED tape), but more powerful = more heat and in a sealed space like that with no heat sink backer it could (potentially) be problematic.

[@robspithoff4332]

True, I did forget about that part, though (correct me if I'm wrong) steel doesn't make a great heatsink because it's not as conductive as things like the standard aluminum. It would've been pretty simple to make an aluminum ring that fits inside the wood pieces for the LEDs to mount to that contacts the steel, though. Maybe that would be a workable compromise.
