OK Got really caught up in WWZ!!!!! Not even gonna try to pretend I am not a big fan 
I loved the story and especially the refrences to the soldier's last ditch weapon the Lobotomizer! Well I went ahead and made something along the lines of what I thought a Lobo should look like. No longer pretending to be a converted E tool but a pure weapon! I have named mine Odin's Razor! Mostly a large axe, it has piercing abilities too at the point and at the base of the recurved blade. If used to thrust, the blade is wide enough to cleave a huge wound. A hit to the head would definitely make this a 1 shot,1 kill capable weapon. The G10 slabs are textured and large enough for a two handed grip. You can even use it as a thrusting spear if you had a shield/weapon in your other hand. I drilled out the tang to drop some weight and keep it blade heavy as an axe style weapon should be. Overall it is 29 1/8in and the sharpend blade area is 10in long. 1/4in thick 5160 is my blade stock and the bevels are flat ground.
