Zombie Hammer Upgraded!

[JoergS]

The hammer was in need of repair after the test against the tactical vest.

Since the throwing knives went through the vest with ease, I decided to try one as a spike on the hammer.

I changed the threaded bolt from 10mm to 12mm, and bought some tubular threaded stainless steel nuts (50mm length). Then I welded both a stainless steel spike and one of the knife blades to the nuts.

Now I can quickly interchange them, preparing it for the job at hand (human aggressor or undead monster).

I also made the spike far more pointy for better penetration.

I demand a pig's head test!

and a coconut bra.

So you want a pig's head, wearing a coconut helmet, upholstered with a ballistic vest?

But with the ballistic vest partially unzipped; to alluringly reveal that magnificent pair of .... coconut halves.

Bunch of sick, twisted freaks up in here... i feel right at home.

Big guy, you got to give the people what they want. Test! Test! Test!

I wonder about the logistics of performing this test on every slingshot Joerg has ever made.
On the same pig.
All at once.

[JoergS]

Didn't get a pig, but a veritable German Army "Bundeswehr" steel helmet... will test it, and publish the video later today.

As a member of this forum, I need to know if my Zombie Hammer can protect its owner against the notorious "undead soldier" type of ghoul.

Here's the video. I made an own post for it, so others find it too - hope that's alright.

I think you need to use a harder steel for your spikes. They seem to be too malleable. Tempered high carbon steel would probably get you the appropriate hardness. The desgn though is solid. It's sort of a modern day godendag.

Maybe not high carbon, but a good, tough medium carbon may be the trick. 4140 would be my choice. It's what I made my power hammer dies from, and they've held up to forging hot steel over time quite nicely.

Other then the fact the knife broke I really liked the 'leave the blade in them' fiction, and was wondering if there was a quick clamp you could make that would hold one of those throwing knives until you hit something with it

[JoergS]

You know, that is not a bad idea. The stapler of death! I like that.
