Thank you, Michael!
But time frame is too wide Can you advise me any reference related to European medieval battle axes? Regards, Evgeny |

Hi Evegeny,
Still the best reference in my eyes is Dr. Rudolf Wegeli, Inventar der Waffensammlung des Bernischen Historischen Museums in Bern, vol. III: Stangenwaffen, 1939. Best, Michael Last edited by Matchlock; 28th November 2013 at 12:15 PM. |
