  1. A "Bec de Corbin" (Beak of the raven). It's a reproduction of a medieval pole weapon consisting of a pronged hammer head, a pick, and a spear point mounted on a wooden haft (approximately 6 feet in length). The weapon (like all medieval weapons) came in many variations. The hammer point was used to crush armor, the pick or "beak" was used to trip, drag, or pull mounted foes off their horses. The spear point would be used to slide under pieces of armor or stab into exposed joints once an enemy was prone. It was popular during the Hundred years war (~1350-1450).
