Drill a hole through one of the teeth, run a replacement chain link through it, hook it onto the end of a chain, and you've got the makings of a vicious flail.

I've thought about a flail as well, I'd do it with steel cable rather than chain though

Meh, I've got a bunch of AR500 targets, so that's about the last thing on my list, sorry
 
This is currently in progress. The head is is 5x4x8 rosewood block. The shaft is a maple 1.5"x36" dowel. Next is sanding the head and shaft. Then hammering brass strips around the head and pinning in place.

Fancy rip poker, the handle came from a fireplace poker and all I did was thread about halfway down the handle. Then inserted a steel rod and locktite in place.

Looks like a fancy stiletto to me. What kind of steel did you use for the rod? And are you planning on tapering it further?
 
Wow. Been a while since this thread was updated. Let's see if we can fix that, shall we?

First, something simple.



And now, something not so simple.
