Lances & Spears

The term pole weapon refers to weapons that usually have a point, blade or club at the end of a long, two-handed pole. This type of weapon is one of the oldest in human history.

The spear as old as mankind itself. It was used to kill animals and hunt them from a safe distance. It was also perfectly suited as a throwing weapon. The Roman legionaries used a throwing spear, which was called pilum. In the Middle Ages the lance developed, which was used by the armored horsemen, the knights. For the infantry, a large number of effective pole weapons developed from the fighting tools of simple peasants. In the 14th and 15th centuries, Swiss citizens and Swiss mercenaries perfected the use of pole weapons, especially halberds and the pike.
