High speed sword pommels launched from a 960lbs crossbow.....Why? What?....Really?.......500 years ago Talhoffer wrote an instructional book on how to fight. One drawing shows a man throwing his sword pommel at his opponent and 500 years later Skallagrim turned it into a meme........
I have adapted a crossbow bolt with a 510g sword pommel and shoot it at a camera and see melons to see what happens, but it also brings up the important question "What weight bolt is best?"
That film will be coming.
