  • @MrSchpankme I agree that the primary weapons would have been his bow and axe. The knife would of course have served utility functions, as you have described. However it may not be to much of a leap to imagine the knife being employed as a weapon as a last restort.

  • @abarrathemaster I agree, as long as there have been people there have been warriors. This is just one such story.

  • Otzi dagger was blunted used for striking the pyrite he had for making fire. The dagger was sharp which would also make it useful for skinning and cutting flesh etc. Otzi used the Bow and a Copper Axe for combat.
