This phrase came from an old English saying. Before the time of modern weapons centered on guns and more advanced technology, wars were fought with tools such as swords, spears, bows, etc. Whenever a soldier could strike a target, a fellow soldier, often times the commander, would comment and say that the weapon had a "good point" and was "well made."
