If so, why don't you bring it and I will have a look at it. I would like to pass it because it looks cool and is the right shape. I will have to see if it compresses well on impact. If it does, you're probably good. If not, then it is too much like a real mace. Real maces were dangerous. Bring it out, we'll have a look at it. I will either pass it or give you suggestions to improve it so I might be able to pass it later.

Talk to you later,

Curiosity has taken hold and I have a few questions for you. How much give does a piece of rattan have? How much give is required for a rubber mace head? Does it make sense that rattan is okay without give and rubber is not okay? What is the difference (it's not like rattan and rebar)?


I don't usually do "Yeah, me too" posts. But...

See Ewan's responses. He has posted exactly what I would have responded to your question with. Almost as if we have a similar background or outlook on fighting or something. I just had to chime in so I didn't ignore your questions.
