Streitkolben Faustkolben

What an incredible piece of weaponry! The metal work and blacksmithing is superior to anything I have seen. The weight is substantial, yet not overly heavy or off-balanced. The twist on the shaft and the trefoil cutouts on the five flanges of the mace head give the piece a subtle elegance while not diminishing the utility of the piece as a brutal, blunt weapon of war. The slight color variations in the metal, minor imperfections, and the leather wrapped grip all point to a true hand crafted, hand forged weapon. Remarkable! As a collector of medieval weaponry, this is now the highlight of my collection.
