The halberd weapon is a powerful polearm that originated in medieval Europe, combining the features of an axe, spear, and hook. Designed for versatility, it was highly effective in battle—capable of slashing, thrusting, and pulling riders from horseback. With a long wooden shaft and a steel blade, the halberd was a favorite among foot soldiers for its reach and multifunctional use. Battling Blades offers authentic, handcrafted halberds ideal for collectors, reenactors, and enthusiasts of historical weaponry.
