[Low-Tech] The Disc Mace

Recently ran across Skallagrim's video on disc maces (a bit over twenty-one minutes long), and found myself wondering how they might be statted (swing/cutting, maybe? some seem sharp enough), and how they'd work in a game.

On a related note, if you don't take the head off (or can't do so conveniently), what is the best way to carry a disc mace (or worse, a spiked mace) while traveling? Over your shoulder, maybe? With the head end in a box attached to your carrying gear (backpack, belt, bandolier, harness, whatever)?
