I know what you mean Karyuu, about the blade through the wood, just dont know how you would physically do that! (axe or pick handle style).
It might have looked abit better with a metal cap on the end or something.

@ Black_rose, yeah, I am working on a Sabre at the moment! :)

Actualy thats how it is suppost to be. The shaft goes through a hole in the blade and a wedge is driven into the shaft to keep it in place. Though a quality weapon would have a cap over the part of the shaft sticking out.

I know Hatchnet, I also said \"or [...] a stronger attachment\" :) Example:



Sikarda\'s blades look as though they are a liquid metal poured onto and around the wooden pole, instead of welded onto it.
