Will we be able to unscrew our pommels and throw them at the enemy general to "end him rightly?"

Nice Skallgrim reference But I do believe screw off pommels were not common for civil war blades.

Did Civil War Era swords really even have pommels?
Well, obviously they had a pommel, but moreso in a traditional sense. It seems like most sword handles from that time came with the pommel, guard and handle as one lump of metal, rather than being threaded or peened.

Too much sci-fi. It's not good for you.
