I partnered with @20thcenturystudios to create the stone hatchet from PREY! Add PREY on Blu-ray, DVD and 4K UHD to your movie collection!
In this video, I'm attempting to create the world's sharpest 'stone' hatchet, drawing inspiration from the film Prey. As it turns out, working with actual stone isn't my strength, so I switched to steel, aiming to give it a stone-like appearance.
For the material, I used a wedge, possibly intended for splitting stones itself, but on the inside it was a bit more delaminated than expected. However, it ended up working great. I then used hickory for the handle and added leather and ropes to complete the design.
In the end, I'm very happy with how it turned out. Using a rope to throw the hatchet makes it a lot of fun because you don't have to walk to pick it up every time. Although it does make spinning the hatchet a bit harder, at least with this one I made. It might be worth trying on other styles of axes and hatchets to see how it works because it's really enjoyable.
Thank you all for following this journey and for your support. Your encouragement means a lot!
