We’ve seen many weapon builds, but this is the first time we’ve encountered a macuahuitl replica. This Aztec weapon dates to the 10th century and consists of a wooden paddle with spikes around its edge. DiesInEveryFilm made one of these weapons from scratch using modern tools. His wife, Emma Caglar created the artwork.
