I always figured that such a bec de corbin/lucerne hammer would be the best zombie apocalypse weapon. Durable, low maintenance and not too much risk of getting stuck. Perfect.
This is so cool! Just makes me want to make a spear for all the thicket and brush we have (it would totally be better than a machete i can't be the only one thinking this)
That third hand can be like an NPC now. You should name him……okay maybe not 😅 Nice choice, head crushing weapons are always extra damaging to zombies! See, who needs the AK?

Nice entry, really like the idea of just repurposing a hammer, couldn't get any easier. Nice range, great versatility, low maintenance clearly one of the better ideas. Oh and I enjoyed the comic relief too, great video.
Nice! I'd go with a frictionfit Spike Tomahawk with a additional Spike on top. Basicly the same.. a little more versitile because of the blade, and head and handle could be used seperately.
Lots of fun, and for a throw together project functional. However I think I'd have allowed that 'spear' blade to go deeper into the handle and then fasten it Messer style - much more durable and you really don't need to be able to go all the way through one zombie into another with your spear tip, half that length would be sufficient.
I kinda think a walking stick aesthetic - i.e. no blade on the top - would have been very useful. Imagin walking through an apocalyptic wasteland with a heavy backpack the entire day, you would be very happy if your weapon doubles as a hiking stick.
I do think Shaun of the Dead does one of the best jobs for depicting a realistic outcome of a sudden zombie apocalypse. Sudden panic, deaths, and mayhem, but any military would easily overcome hordes of shambling, unarmoured, unarmed enemies.
Instead of welding, you could have gone for epoxy or glue, with friction. Yes: It's let secure than welding, but less issues with inconsistend hardness by the heath of welding
Nice Warhammer! You should make a fist with your 3. hand, just let the middle finger stick out to insult the zombies! :D btw: put some magnets on your anvil! Even your mic screeches recoding the sound! :P
I already have one magnet on there but the anvil isn’t fastened to the stand. I just put it on there and put some nails so it doesn’t wander about for one project and then never did it properly. Nothing last as long as temporary solutions that work I guess 😂
@@NjordArtisan At least put some modeling clay on the tip of your anvil horn. Should bring down the ringing significantly. So your temporary solution can last a bit longer! :D
This is hilariously similar to a weapon concept I put into a story I'm writing. Short hafted spear with a mace head mounted below the spearhead. My in-universe reasoning for its development was a spear with a more manageable length and bludgeoning capacity used in mountainous forested terrain. About the only thing missing is the counterweight on the other end. You even threw it like it's sometimes used by some of the characters! Best of all, I was toying with variations on the designs used by different characters, and I gave one character a version that swapped the mace and spearhead for a spike and glaive head.
You keep mentioning that you should have welded the knife on; but you left out the better option. You could have drilled a hole in a strip of steel, riveted the blade to the plate through that hole, and having the steel strip bend around the hammer head and down onto the shaft. This is how pollaxe spikes are secured. 😁
Forged in fire: Trying to have best shots of cutting, slamming, slashing and killing with the help of Hollywood movie production = 🤏. Njord Artisjan; (With his sharp hammer stick): Just casually trying to prove his weapon is the best by giving the soul to prove it can completely destroy a pumKING (bossfight) somewhere in northern Germany’s wild nature while being crucially underrated and whole lot of better than any other on his/her own on youtube blacksmith = 💪,🍒. edit: A big fan of yours. Love your work. Keep it up, I will keep watching your videos, doesn’t matter the exact content or jokes. You are on the right path and I feel okay to say that WE love it. Your blacksimthing is on a level that can’t be forgotten, but it is also your other qualities that (I think) will always keep you significant on YT. I believe in your fame. Keep it up Njord!

Another fun little side project for the Apocalypse Challenge, next video will be a bigger project! I'm sure you'll like it 😉
I always figured that such a bec de corbin/lucerne hammer would be the best zombie apocalypse weapon. Durable, low maintenance and not too much risk of getting stuck. Perfect.
Also the reach 👌
And I was also surprised how quickly you could make one. At least the „base version“ 😄
Honestly building weapons for an apocalypse is the main reason I want to start blacksmithing
Yup agree ❤
I really enjoy the adorkable style of these videos. It's refreshing to see someone who doesn't take themselves so seriously on TH-cam these days!
Thanks! I’m glad you like the video 🙌
HAha, love it! You never fail to entertain your viewers! 👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks Denis!
Shaun of the Dead mentioned, RAAHH!
Definitely the better hammer for that job!
cant go wrong with a warhammer and that is a really nice one!
This is so cool! Just makes me want to make a spear for all the thicket and brush we have (it would totally be better than a machete i can't be the only one thinking this)
immagine to be strong enough to use the thunder hammer in a zombie apocalypse, the fucking Z's would become sprinters just to run away from you
Probably 😂
That third hand can be like an NPC now. You should name him……okay maybe not 😅 Nice choice, head crushing weapons are always extra damaging to zombies! See, who needs the AK?
Uh that’s a good idea, I should make a poll for the name 😄
@ That would be hilarious!
10/10 intro
Thanks! It was a lot of fun to film 😄
This looks amazing!
Thank you!
YAY THE HAND IS BACK also please hidden blade soon im begging
Using a hammer to turn another hammer into another kind of hammer.
Amazing Craftsmanship and skill!!👍🏻👍🏽👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks!

guess the vertical sanding belt got a taste of blood, careful, now its gonna happen every time
Oh it got a taste a while ago, I just haven’t used it in a bit and I guess it was craving already 😂

A few days ago, I was considering the best apocalypse weapon. This is it. No ammo, just pure brute force.
Lots of fun, and for a throw together project functional. However I think I'd have allowed that 'spear' blade to go deeper into the handle and then fasten it Messer style - much more durable and you really don't need to be able to go all the way through one zombie into another with your spear tip, half that length would be sufficient.

It's gorgeous!

My man made a bec de corbin and expected me not to notice
Ive been told the Halberd is the ultimate evolution in melee weaponry.
You should make the blades of chaos
Yoooo 22 sec ago
Never would have come up with turning a cross pein into a spike
mah man 🤝
A pins through the wood, to keep the blade on wood be safer.

thank god its not the fast smart ones 🙏
Yeah nah I’d off myself 😄
@@NjordArtisan Lmao yea same
Bro, you just made a lucerne. That's it. It already exists.
Yeah he didnt claim to invent a new weapon

Uhh yeah definitely! That would’ve been good. Guess I have to make a pollaxe now 😄
This turned out as kind of a weird mix between a Warhammer and a boar spear.
The Boar Hammer™️
9:01 blade where
The tip snapped when I used it as a javelin, guess that wasn’t a good idea 😅
You can hear it snap after it hits the logs

Very cool, but dosent a English polaxe do this already? Or a halberd?
Oh yeah, definitely! That was the idea for the video.
And I really want to make a halberd in the future 🙌
someone watched Robin swords
I need to kiss you astronomically
Now build a sickle to go with the hammer...
