Cool/Exotic weapons

[Alex Kennedy 1,228]

I was having a discussion with a couple other people on the forums the other day about old-school guns with a ridiculous number of barrels (I found a pistol with ten). I decided I would make this thread to discuss what kind of weapons people are interested in and what weapons they think are cool.

 

I always love old guns, flintlocks, clockworks, revolvers, and anything with multiple barrels. Then there's sword-canes, which I think most people agree are pretty cool, if perhaps kind of stupid. I also more recently discovered the naginata and how awesome it is. Here's a picture for those of you who aren't familiar.

Just to clarify, this doesn't have to be weapons you own. I don't actually own any weapons besides my carving tools and swiss army knives (and a shillelagh, but some people don't think that counts). Just post any weapons you think are cool, interesting, or ridiculous.

Damascus Viking Sword. If I only had the money to buy one of these... I really like the pattern in the fuller. Just shipping the damn thing would cost a fortune.

The Egyptian Khopesh sword. Apparently it was an effective weapon that unfortunately has fallen into the past and was never allowed to reach it's full potential.

It doesn't have to be old stuff, I'm just really into guns and sails era warfare. 

 

This is a duck foot pistol, one of my personal favorites:

That's the one that I referenced in my first post, with ten barrels. I love it because it's just so excessive and ridiculous. Almost as much so as this one:

More barrels is always better.

I freaking love the Rope Dart.

I actually do this stuff when its on fire 

 

Here be a video.

 

 

 

There is another kind of thing like a rope dart called a Meteor Hammer. The rope dart pierces and the meteor hammer crushes and breaks.

 

 

Poi is also really cool...But it is more of a dance now. It used to be used as a weapon but not anymore

Yeah, the rope dart is one that I planned on posting eventually.

 

I also wanted post something else more exotic, the katar or suwaiya. Most people know them as the weapons Voldo from Soul Calibur uses.

And of course nunchucks are cool, but ultimately kind of stupid, since you're as likely to hurt yourself as your target unless you're a master with them.
