Halberd – 43" Pole Weapon in 1095 High Carbon Steel
This 43" halberd is a compact, functional pole weapon forged from 1095 high carbon steel, designed for historical enthusiasts, collectors, and martial artists seeking authenticity and durability. Inspired by late medieval and Renaissance halberds, this weapon combines a thrusting spear point, a bearded axe blade, and a rear hook, echoing battlefield versatility in a more maneuverable form.
Traditionally used by foot soldiers in the 14th to 17th centuries, halberds were prized for their ability to thrust, cut, hook, and control opponents at mid-range. This modern rendition, though shorter than its battlefield ancestors, retains the defining traits of the halberd while offering ease of storage, carry, and training.
