    Not a weapon, but @Bear makes beautiful crosses out of railroad spikes.

    LOL @Hanzo Did I ever show you the shuriken I made out of them as well ;) Think equal length, forged to a point arms... this is indeed a good thread...
    Yup... Hornet spray is a good one... keep a case for those darn "hornets" ;)

    While it can't compare to your railroad spike shuriken, one camp, I showed the kids how to make Apache throwing stars. Hours of fun throwing that stuff around at camp.

    Yeah, I liked the hornet spray idea too.

    Learned early on that every item one has should have two or more uses. Be a simple stick with a nail driven through it or a belt fed.

    A railroad spike inserted in a handle 24-30 inches long makes a sturdy war hammer...

    We used to have Roman candle fights and fire cracker fights in our late teen's. RC can do a some damage, but we didn't shot for the face. Firecrackers when you tried to short fuse them they went off in your hand or right by your ear. What that your saying.

    Used a can of beans in a sock. Soap, change, rocks, in a sock or towel, Batteries (c or D) in your hands.
    Ashtray, cast iron pan, Windex,
    Mix bleach with ammonia and throw it in the face.
    Baby oil heated works well, or squirt it on the floor.

    I'm thinking kittens/cats for defensive weapons. Step on a cat's tail at 02:00 in the dark in your bare feet and see what kind of weapon it becomes..:D

    My 6 cell Maglight, a katana here and there, kitchen knives hammered from saw mill blades, salt shakers on every table, the female end of an extension cord makes a good makeshift nunchuk as does a short bungie cord, your keys held between the fingers in a fist and used as a stabbing weapon to the eyes, the list is endless....
