16th Century Medieval Halberd Hand Forged Carbon Steel Pole arm with Wooden Shaft

Description

Step into the battlefields of the Renaissance with this 16th Century Hand-Forged Halberd, a faithful reproduction of the pole arms that dominated European warfare and ceremonial halls alike.

The halberd’s multi-functional design made it indispensable:

• A spear point for thrusting and keeping enemies at bay

• A crescent axe blade for cleaving through armor

• A rear spike (fluke) for piercing plate or pulling riders from horseback

This reproduction stays true to its historical counterparts. The carbon steel head is hand-forged for strength and authenticity, securely mounted to a solid wooden shaft polished for both grip and durability. At just 1.6 kg, it offers an ideal balance between reach and control, making it suitable for HEMA-style drills, stage combat, or long displays.

With its commanding length of 123.5 cm (48.6 in), it brings both presence and practicality to medieval halls, or private collections.
