Notice that it's one of the rarest bone to survive for thousand of years; it's one of the sturdiest part of an animal's body Greetings, Mauro.

Gender:	Re: jaw bone clubs Reply #10 - Dec 18^th, 2010 at 10:07am I mean, they may lose a tooth or two with very hard hits, but they'll break off very rarely, especially if used properly (right direction I mean). Greetings, Mauro.

Where do you get a buffalo jaw bone anyway? Yeah, that story about the guy who killed the Philistines with an ass's jawbone never made much sense to me until I actually saw the size of one.

Posts: 1267 Lima, Peru Gender:	Re: jaw bone clubs Reply #14 - Dec 18^th, 2010 at 2:27pm I think it was Samson who killed all those people with a donkey jawbone. In the first episode of Deadliest Warrior, the Apache guy used a tomahawk made with the jawbone of a horse. The ballistic gel head pretty much exploded with the hit. Amazing piece Aztec, keep them coming.
