Cool thing to make & really easy. Find a stick about 3ft long, hardwood is best.
Cut each piece about 15 inches long. Notch the middle, get them to fit good, lash them together with leather
or sinew if you have it or string. Sharpen the ends & then fire harden them, dont burn them.
And your done, that easy. Practice throwing it at stumps. Cheers.

Cool!
To fire harden wood, do you put it under the hot coals?
