Here some pictures from our tridents (adult version)! They need still some little finish. But they are already really good for combats (at least we hadn't any casualties yet) Big Grin

DAMN! That puts my trident to shame. What did you use to make the tines? the socket? The plugs are much like mine, but all the rest is vastly superior. HOW CAN I GET ONE?!

very cleverly constructed Big Grin

If you have such a level of metalwork skill have you ever seen a WWI practice bayonet. It has a telescoping tube which is spring loaded so that you can thrust without causing damage. tried to google it but no joy.
