The halberd is three tools on one shaft: an axe blade, a spike above it, and a hook or beak behind.Three answers to three problemsThe spike thrusts and holds cavalry off. The axe blade cuts at infantry. The rear hook catches a rider’s armour or a horse’s harness and drags him down. A single soldier with a halberd could deal with a mounted man, a shield wall and a press of foot, which is why it stayed in service for centuries.Ours are hand-forged from high-carbon steel, sold as heads or mounted on hardwood.Please check your local law before ordering.
Made by hand in the Czech Republic, imported by Ransack Viking and shipped from our Memphis, Tennessee warehouse. Any engraving you add is carried out here in the United States.
The halberd is an axe head with a spike and a hook added, which is why the background on axe head shapes reads across to it so well. Keeping that edge in order is the same job as any axe, and this guide covers it properly.
