Hawaiians made good use of materials from their natural world. Shark's teeth made excellent carving tools and fearsome weapons. Simple tools used 1 or 2 teeth, some weapons used more. This awesome one of 42 tiger shark teeth, studded on carved koa, would frighten any enemy. The weapon was probably carried into battle by a high-ranking chief. It was found recently at Warwick Castle, England, and may have been collected during Captain Cook's expedition in Hawai�i .
Gift: Hemmeter Corporation, 1991.
So I just thought you all should kno about this thing. Weapons are important things. Incase some of you want to go out and build one yourself.
