When asked to think about survival weapons, most of us immediately think of firearms, knives, machetes, etc.
In almost every case, each weapon has at least one thing in common – they all contain some metal components if they are not entirely made of metal.
Metal, in many ways, but particularly in weaponry, changed the prospects for humanity, and we still use it in most weaponry today.
What if, however, you find yourself without a traditional weapon?
What if your firearm is damaged or you are in a survival situation without them and have no way of accessing them?
Because that is a possibility, it is a good thing to have a basic understanding of weaponry that does not use metal.
The video on the next page covers nonmetal weapons that have been used around the world (even if you never have to make or use them, it is still interesting to see how weapons have evolved over time).

Those are just a few things ive made… i got into primitive and imrpovised weapons as a kid, when i was too young and too poor to have guns or swords
What is this made from? I like the shape
It’s just a bit of seasoned ash i believe, but it could also be white oak… it was from a pile of fire wood so bark and wood grain/color was all i had to go on
