If you want to know, how to make a war club, then this video is for you. In this case I will show you how to make a wooden war club. I got inspired by the native american tribes how they made the ball headed war clubs, because the shape of the war clubs was quite unusual and this is also the reason, why I decided to make an indian war club by myself. As you can see, I am not a native american and I do not claim to build exactly their weapons, it's just inspired by them and I really think, that it's important to quote the source to give credit to the inventors of these wooden self defense tools.
As I said, I asked myself, how did the native american made their war clubs? If I wanted to understand the whole process of building a wooden war club, I had to build one by myself. This is learning by doing and my way ro learn and building weapons without metals is a very special journey.
