Most infantry weapons were modifications of simple farming or fishing tools, and proved invaluable when defending against, or even attacking, a mounted knight.

We usually send out the steel heads already mounted on full length oak or rattan shafts, to make for seven foot polearms. But you we can also put them on shorter staffs if you want them as single-hand weapons.

H35 - PILUM - this style of Roman spear a had long, thin iron neck. (wooden pole not shown) Once imbedded in an enemy shield, it would be impossible to simply hack-off the pole, so the enemy shield became heavy and useless. If, on the other hand, it bounced off of a shield, the long neck would bend, making it useless for the enemy to use. [$11.00]

H39 - WHALER'S HARPOON - Sometimes the fights in pirate shows can get a little limiting with just cutlasses. Throwing in a harpoon can add many fun moves. Rattan shaft and steel neck  [$11.00]
