Shark Tooth Weapons of Ancient Hawai’i
Part of the material of the book Warrior Arts and Weapons of Ancient Hawai'i is available on Google Books, including the chapter on the construction of shark tooth weapons. There was a recent episode of Deadliest Warrior that demonstrated a recreation of an Aztec war club made of wood embedded with obsidian that functions much the same way as these shark tooth weapons. It was amazing to watch it smash then cut like a chainsaw through whatever flesh it hit. These weapons may not be durable but when they work they are pretty fearsome.
