60% of the time , it works Every time 👍🏼
You think someday you'd try those double edged wolverine claws we briefly talked about? I still think those would be very cool (referring to my comment you responded to on the wolverine claw video)
We're trying to get it up to 75%
Darn, i was hoping Nate would have still been there when you brought them over.
lol. The question is whether the success rate can be improved with training or if it’s fundamental to the weapon.
I took a couple of those edger blades that go on weed eaters that looks like circular saw blade and ground the teeth down and put a scandi grind on them and they are scary like a razor blade frizbe from hell try it out if anything can be called a throwing glaive they can 👍
When Boromir catches the round end, you need a new Boromir.
dont kink shame boromir
Boromir is looking very rough. like, long after his funeral boat floated down the Anduin.
I would equip Boromir with some cloathing and set him aside to let him rest.....He needs it (lets buy Faramir)
@@vithlozek4247 Yep, I agree. Long live Faramir!
nothing some duct tape won't fix in a jiffy.
Great demonstration vid, guys.
I said this a while back on a previous vid, but I would still recommend putting thick rubber tiles on top of those concrete tiles. So the weapons don’t get damaged and last longer.
Flex Seal should do it
Or a thick rug.
I've seen some EVA yoga foam tiles from the dollar store, so that might work for cheap.
I can't say how it is there, but here any decent farm supply store will have 3/4" rubber stall matting for cheap.
Cover the concrete tiles with big thick slabs of Boromir meat.
Weapons seem to bounce like crazy on those. >.>
Took me just now to realize the reason Shad is selling hoodies in the middle of the summer, is because it’s the middle of the winter for him 😂 forgot he was in Australia
Well, by the time they get to some of us, they will be perfect.
I'm pretty sure that sessions happen because the distance between the earth and the sun changes as the earth orbits the sun 😅
@@oneofthelast1408Seasons happen because of the tilt of earth as it orbits the sun.
@@oneofthelast1408seasons are caused by the tilt... And it _is winter_ in Australia right now.
Christmas is a summer holiday down there.
@@oneofthelast1408 incorrect
Blade is rolling over in his glaive right now
(Snort)
Better in than on....possibly.
Idk,I fell asleep on a 5 inch bladed knife once,woke up with a sore spot but no blood,I'm how.
Sharp wit, cuts to the quick. You slay us...
Nicely done good sir 👏
Blade is an amazing movie. Would love to see an analysis of his sword as well.
MCU Blade is also going to suck hard without Wesley Snipes.
Ali will crush the role... If he gets a chance
@@NerfThisBoardGames I really do feel bad for him.
Mahershala Ali is a great actor, and I think he could be awesome as Blade. I don't think the lack of Wesley Snipes is why it'll be terrible, but oh yeah, I think it'll be terrible, regardless of how good Ali might be. Disney can't make anything but trash these days. Doubly so when it comes to the MCU.
@@iDEATH Yeah, script writing has really become a lost art for Disney and most of Hollywood.
The third one already sucked hard and he was part of that.
The television show didn't have him involved in any way and it was a pleasant surprise. The low budget was obvious, but was better than expected.
Really, when that 5 blade "glaive" whistles by your head, and your brain finally catches up on current events, realizing what had _just barely_ missed you, most people would decide that the fight just wasn't worth it.
Unless that was their only weapon and are now unarmed, now you realize you've already won.
@@bloodlove93 But then you pull out your superior 6 blade glaive and ask if they feel lucky ;)
@@MortemerRouge Krullkilldie Dundee: "That's not a glaive!... *THIS* is a glaive!"
Unless it's a throwing axe or javelin, I wouldn't worry too much.
Thrown weapons are more of a distraction than a lethal threat.
If you have this mindset you can catch a knife thrower off guard and get the drop on him by just trying to tank his projectiles.
You will get hurt, you will bleed a little. But it's very unlikely to kill you.
"Grab a kn ife by the b l a d e and st ab you with the f ing handle" comes to mind 😂
UA-cam, the platform where bots can say the n word but real people can't say "pointy object"
14:15 it's ok, we all have issues with aim and getting things in sometimes. I wasn't going to make this joke until I heard the follow up comment of it being easier without protection and just had to. 😂😂
Much respect to Shad's mother for teaching him how to throw
It will KEEEELLL
When's next season of that hitting again?
@@NerfThisBoardGames no Idea
That’s a fun show.
Bah, the achmed joke doesn't work anymore. I guess UA-cam found it too juvenile.
@@anderporascu5026 It's a quote from one of the former judges on the tv show, Forged in Fire.
The Krul Glave... Be quite that that evil star thing from Sonic 2 Metropolis Zone.
Lol
when I saw that 5 bladed glaive my brain immediately defaulted to bloons tower defense lmao
The starfish of death
That first throw:
TASK FAILED SUCCESSFULLY.
When your barbarian in D&D decides the rogue is pretty cool and wants to try throwing knives hahaha
"It happens every now and then, you just bend it back into place.
Same as katanas, I guess."
Daaaaamn Tyranth, no holds barred on that one!
NINJA: Poor souls! They can't even properly throw knives and blades.
XENA: Just imagine if they throw my Chakram.
BOROMIR: Don't challenge them!
I want to see this!
@@nazrulnadziruddin9641 There is actually someone who did the chakram thing. Like relly hard. Try if you can find the video.
Chakram = murder frisbee
I think Skallagrim did
Anthony: "His aim's **okay.** "
Tyranth: *stares in "I am holding a very sharp weapon."*
"Do you see the flair? That is flair!" Gotta respect Shad's love of fashion haha
I just realized something seeing Shad in an Indiana Jones costume... Shad and Tyranth are basically a kind of media reincarnation of Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman from Mythbusters 😄
1:59 Shad is always trying to ice skate uphill.
8:22
"starting with the glave here"
"I love these pants"
They *do* look like comfy pants.
@@Blurns They make him looks like the kind of noble stereotype that just uses his wealth to get tutored in combat and taken on adventures. In fact, their gear all kinda makes them look like different kind of adventuring nobles: Tyranth the warfare-oriented type (like a former captain/general), Shad the exploration-oriented type (the one looking for unusual creatures to hunt/capture or unchartered terrain to map and name), and Nate seemed like the type of pragmatic noble (responsible, handles the party's finances/logistics) kinda just being dragged along knowing the other 2 might kill each other without them (even though would rather be eating good food and drinking good alcohol back at his keep).
My wife made me a pair similar to those many years ago, only in brown. Used to wear them when I went to Faires...can't afford to go anymore, so they just sit there, not being worn. They are quite comfy.
Y'all are like my 3 favorite brothers and act like brothers. Keep up the good work and stay safe.
Krull is one of my favs. It's a glorious, cheesy 80s swords-and-sorcery romp with loads of "before they were famous" big names like Robbie Coltrane and Liam Neeson
If you try something like this again, you might try making a Caber throwing weapon from "Beastmaster". It's like a folding double-handaxe thingy
it's a pity they dubbed Mia Sarah because they were afraid she sounded too young, I wish there was a version with her real voice
@@TrueFork I think you might be thinking of Legend. The princess in Krull was Lysette Anthony... whose British accent was dubbed over by an American using a fake British accent. Turns out Robbie Coltrane was also dubbed over in Krull for... reasons, I guess
@@SilentSooYun yeah I had a Biden moment 😅
10:21 Batwoman was right all along!
My friend did that throwing knife move exactly!
i mean tbf if you embed the handle in someone they gotta handle the blade to get it out
Shad now has an anime/video game type move unlocked. The reverse kunai skewer
Something I noticed about Shad's performance with the throwing knives is that he kept on having to adjust his pauldrons every time he got into position! Even if the pauldrons were light weight and weren't getting in the way of his throw, he was getting distracted about keeping them in position, which meant he wasn't fully focused on the throwing! In the meantime, the other two who did not have pauldrons almost threw perfectly!
he probably should have taken one off
I live for the Shad vs Tyranth rivalry. I also love everyone caught in the middle, between Nate's "oh look the boys are at it again" and Ant's "yup, super glad to be here, going with whatever you say!" attitudes, it's half the reason I watch these. Love the weapons and the information and all that, great stuff. But the banter between everyone is just the icing on the cake.
Agreed. It's always enjoyable to watch the banter and good times
Subbed to screen tested!
Yes! He makes some really cool stuff
I did not even know until now that Tyranth had a channel!
I'm a firm cultist of tyranth red so I believe he has won the most. But I think bald nate is the best swordsman.
If Warframe has taught me anything, it's that if you slap a bit of gold filigree on that bad boy it'll proc slash for days.
A fellow man of culture, I see.
Now you just need to slap that god roll riven mod on there.
And Dark Sector taught me, to always carry a handgun together, with your "proto" glaive.
can already see the relax vibe from Anthony adding well to the overall dynamic, will make a great addition to the channel c: looking forward to the future
Spot on with that assessment about the title and the thumbnail.
*(At the Beginning)
When you cast "Mantle of Thorns"
"Tyranth has been known to use dark magic" - Ive used the same line on my mates too lol
A glaive is a weapon for slicing far away people. Usually using a blade on a pole, but you can also just throw the blades for a throwing glaive. At least that's a reason the name could make sense, though I'm pretty sure someone just thought "throwing glaive" sounded cool (which I do agree with).
Perhaps something like "glaive chakram" since "throwing" got dropped and just "glaive" used for various fantasy chakrams including both fully round blades proper and "rounded" knives that don't complete an outer circle.
I'm really enjoying having Ant around, the banter he brings to the group as well as the "I don't know as much about medieval stuff but I'm still 100% on board" feel he brings is just awesome ❤
If I remember correctly, the krull weapon mostly moved on its own. He would theirs it in the general direction, but the weapon would spin and move in is own.
It both moved independently and could be directed and recalled.
I love the way you guys tease each other and it's obviously not mean spirited and you make sure and reinforce that you are making jokes and not leave your friend feeling like you are serious in any way. It's respectable teasing
I love the banter these videos bring XD, literally just 3 dudes screwing with each other having a good time.
Shad pushes it too far. Some of the videos (like this one) end up just being him doing "I win/you lose" bants to the point of completely ignoring the subject of the video. Rather than constantly trying to win, they could have discussed what they were seeing/learning from each throw. Don't get me wrong, it's fun in small doses, but Shad doesn't seem to be able to let things go and actually focus on the topic at hand.
Best game for glaives has to be Warframe. It has both the Krull kind, in all sorts of flavours, and the proper polearm kind, also in all sorts of flavours. Warframe isn't accurate to anything, though, it's just a fun and very weird game.
I approve of this as a fellow Warframe addict
@@BloodSlinga same
Was thinking the same, 3500 hours and probably as much money spent on that game lol
"We're what you call Professionals" and now you owe The Mythbusters a royalty check 🤣
15:07 💯 % Shad’s motivation made that stick in the skull 😂
It's so funny, I can definitely tell you and Jazza are siblings because of how you both shout when excited. Like the kunai intro clip, very similar sounding
Your videos are more entertaining than most comedy shows. It's always w pleasure watching your content
"Throwing Bladed Thingies!"
A name that will live forever.
It encapsulates the design to perfection.
I love how nate is still in the intro for being apart of this legacy; but is it possible that he might do videos with y'all in the future as a cameo?
"Nate slaps his ass in it." How many people are gonna watch it just for how funny that sounds? Having seen it on release, it's as funny as it sounds.
Your outcry of laughter made me laugh out loud too. Love it!
A guard from a village was found dead with a sword sticking through his chest. The blade was deemed to be the handiwork of the local blacksmith. However, he had been away from the village by the time of the murder. Nonetheless, he was arrested shortly after returning and demanded his immediate release.
The town judge decided to charge the blacksmith with murder, arguing that he had forged the weapon that ended the guard’s life and was still responsible. Before being found guilty, the blacksmith pleaded for leniency, claiming not to have personally been a part of the murder. The judge only looked at him and stated before delivering his sentence for the murder, “Thou who smelt it, dealt it.”
Well then the person who discovered the body should be arrested right?
@@Irish_Enderman Depends on if the corpse had started to stink yet or not, I suppose.
@@NanoElite666 yeah but I meant if the court was following the "whoever smelt it dealt it" joke unironically then the person to discover the crime scene would be the one arrested for it
...Dangit! Okay that was a good joke.
Maybe put some mulch or something over the concrete lol
just put an old twin size mattress around it. Heck Shad could use one of his own kids old beds. then just cut a hold in it for rubber boy to slot into.
or just some planks
Amazing episode! Time to build the real Christmas throwing star
"Krull" was one of my childhood favorite movies. Which is why I immediately recognized the Glaive when "Sho" threw it in "Ready Player One".
Shad opens by proving the lightsaber hilt is all you need.
This was a lie of fun to watch!
I bet it was as much fun to watch and probably triply as terrifying to film.
Tyranth did an excellent job on the Glaive.
His original video was pretty neat.
I like seeing the extra looks at some of his projects.
The trash talk off camera must be even more amazing
they look like leather tig welding gloves
Man, what are the odds that Shad would just happen to find a hole in Boromir so that the throwing knife sticks in *backwards*? 10/10 money shot, nobody would believe it if y'all hadn't gotten it on camera.
Always great to see Anthony!
Seriously his enthusiasm is great. Glad he’s onboard.
“They way it does”
You guys need to do a collab with Kentucky Ballistics, him getting to learn real medieval weapons, and you guys getting to learn about guns. Kentucky Roulette would be great fun.
Guys having fun and sharing fun facts. It is what it is.
11:38 Shad giving Ant the crash course in Tyranth slander is just too funny
The clown with the armor on his shoulders would have a better throw if he didn't wear them 😂😂😂😂😂 you guys are awesome
How I would love to see a full-sized, high-carbon steel version of the Krull Glaive.
As for the name, if I'm not mistaken, 15th Century English made the word Glaive from the Latin word for Sword, Gladius. Originally, 'Glaive' was just another term for a large bladed weapon, with the more famous Glaive-Polearm being distinguished by the fact it was a Polearm with a Sword-Like Blade.
When the Glaive was named in the movie, I think what they were going for was this idea of a "mystical sword", like Excalibur, that went beyond the expectations of mundane understanding. So, it was essentially meant to be understood as a Five-Bladed Sword, more than a Throwing Star/Wind and Fire Wheel/Star Knife type weapon.
love your guys dynamic
As someone who owns and knows a bit about fighting with a glaive i can tell ya. Throwing it CAN work, but in most cases WON'T so you SHOULDN'T throw a glaive.
I know that's not what this video is about but the topic made me think about this. 😂
Shad and Tyranth arguing over who has larger bracers just gave me the vibe of two random off duty town guards.
Rubber restaurant kitchen mats over the concrete should help
Boromir caught the wrong end of the knife because there was a RING attached to it.
Tyranth is a volcano of rage and I'm here for it lol 😂
You guys are proof that work can be fun!
glad to see Ant getting more accustomed to the energy of the channel
"they way it does" typo in the title card, Shad
Ant is already a legend, but that cartwheel was great
Legend has it that the name 'Glaive' was a hang on from the days when these blades were launched from the end of a glaive for more distance and power etc, A trait discovered in battle when damaged glaives would lose their tips whilst being swung at opponents, this very quickly led to the development of the 'throwing glaives' we know today, these ones being simply a more concealed carry/EDC version, although they were mostly used to show off whilst feasting. ;)
Thanks for throwing a video this way! ^^
18:40 maaaaybe it was all the times Shad SPIKED IT into the concrete.
I think… you should do a video on Kingdom Hearts combat. Shad’s reaction to the Keyblades would be hysterical, and it’ll just pile on the hysteria as the Shadiversity team goes deeper. Lots of questionable weapons, lots of other things, and Shad being himself in a Kingdom Hearts setting would be priceless.
One point to add with the Blade weapon is that he's using it against vampires that go poof when hit so getting it stuck in isn't really a concern or priority for him.
Glaive = Scimitar on a stick. They can include an extension of the lower end of the blade that returns to the pole.
I like it when a shadow University video turns out like this. Things that shouldn't work work extremely well. I love how baffling it is as a reaction when it when it does happen.
🤩 ah, Krull... I loved that film. I must have watched it a million times when I was a child back in the '80s.
Shad: I put half of the stuff behind paywall so the video in YT is more consumable for average viewer
Also Shad: Insert two minute ad in the middle of the video
Ya know what the absolute best practice for throwing the “Blade” version. There’s a “Kong” dog toy that’s a combination tug of war toy and throwing toy. It took me a while to learn to throw it correctly, but now that I’ve learned I can throw it almost as far as a frisbee.
A man and his cool pants a tale as old as time
The Krull glave has the added bonus of making for a good Christmas tree decoration.
Shad Norris can kill you with either end of a throwing knife.
Across central and southern Africa there was a hodgepodge of things like with a variety of names that were generally lumped together as "throwing irons" that's about the closest real counterpart.
15:00 honestly, no matter how much of a badass I might feel like before getting into that situation like Boromir, the moment a double-sided weapon rolls over my face, I'm going home, and I'm going to cry lmao
Title typo? "This SHOULD NOT WORK they way it does! " ...the way it does?
get some bags of dirt/sandbags, and put them infront of the target over the concrete
'All he ever needed was some positive reinforcement," lol
Is there a reason why a flail might have 2 or sometimes 3 heads in games and fantasy.
Those did exist, he explained it on the video when he discussed the double-ended flail from Catwoman...
From a more practical side, more points of impact.
From a story side, more intimidating.
love the vids man
With the overhand throw distance is very important due to the rotation. Which is why the flat throw with throwing knives is a more versatile option as range to target is not as much of a factor.
The new guys optimism and energy is refreshing.
I loved how every time they mentioned Tyranth's training they add an extra 100-200 hours XD
It's a double ended or double headed Karambit. The key part that is missing is the finger loop at the end off the handle that makes it easier to hold on to.
This is so funny. Thanks for posting.
