Sanch Report post Posted October 2, 2017 If I were to make something like that I would take pieces of dowel and put them in the finger holes and then dip it in boiling wax to harden it 9 hours ago, Stetson912 said: Are they hardened at all? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dragonfly42 Report post Posted October 2, 2017 9 hours ago, Stetson912 said: Are they hardened at all? The black ones are very very hard, the brown ones not so much. I'm not sure exactly why that is though. Remember ima FNG so things like hardening? First I've heard of it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Constabulary Report post Posted October 2, 2017 put a bottle opener on one end them its no longer "weapon" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stetson912 Report post Posted October 2, 2017 Lol, some dyes do that. And if it was wet moulded it could do that too. And like sanch said, it would really hardened up dipped in hot/boiling water/wax. Cuir bouilli is a term meaning boiled leather, it was a process used for making armor harder. I think that would really make them effective lol.
