It looks like somebody put a bigass beer keg on the end of a stick. Whoever heard of making the *head* of a hammer out of wood, anyway? A steel hammer would deliver more force in a smaller concentrated area, not need to be as heavy, and wouldn't be as cumbersome.

@logik316, I don't think anyone has ever thought of this piece as "practical". Like in most action films, "BIGGER" = "more menacing". And I guarantee that a direct hit with this hammer would be FAR messier than a traditional medieval-style war hammer. But it IS a fantasy film, after all; full of things that wouldn't happen in real life. I didn't design the thing, I just replicated it...

Your enemies! To see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their women, of course!

@On0r74

Oh, I know you're just copying the movie prop, and it does look exactly like it. I just never liked the way Thorgrim and his weapon were designed (god of thunder he was *not*).

@Ronin228 he has to take these big swings and he ends up missing alot look at the fight between conan rexor and thorgrim its one of those things where one hit would crush your skull but its massive and slow i wouldnt use it cause a sword would get the job done just as well
