War Hammers
The proliferation of plate armor across Medieval Europe was shadowed by the development of crushing weapons like the war hammer. Since swords were virtually useless against plate armor, mounted knights used short hammers, axes and maces to defeat an opponent's improved protection.

Each weapon is individually hand crafted by some of the best arms crafters in Europe. They are able to study in depth original pieces from museums and private collections in Europe. Old-World craftsmanship ensures attention to detail.

Each piece is fully functional and battle ready. Although these weapons were banned from the tournament field in the middle ages, some groups still use them for live steel/re-enactments. They will perform just as well as the originals and extreme care should be taken.

Shipping time is between 4 to 12 weeks.

Whether you desire museum quality display pieces or battle ready arms we feel confident you can find it here at By The Sword, Inc.
