Polearms?

[Sam Salvati]

Anyone ever make any pole mounted wepons, like spears and such?

Archer Here makes some pretty cool historical weapons. Here's a link to a sale thread that he had of a spear. http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=652766

Scott Slobodian makes a few and they are quite nice -

If I recall correctly there's one or two in his book also, I'd have to look at home though. Incredible work to see in person.

No Stacy I remember that thing, scared the heck out of me

Cool stuff ASaint, that's amazing work. I wonder why not more people don't make polearms/spears, unless I just stink at looking for them.

I recall seeing a thread on somebody's spear tip they made for hog hunting, pretty sure it was here.
