Hello. I recently bought this halberd. I'm interested in what century it is from, what country it may come from and what the stamps on it mean. Thank you very much, friends.

The first picture is of the brand as it really is. The second picture has been edited.So whose workshop does it belong to?

It looks Austrian or South German from end of 16thC. The smaller the axe blade typically the less old it is. The perforations are for decoration and weight reduction. The eye lash marks are for decoration and I think make it look like grapes. I don’t recognize the maker’s mark unfortunately and it’s not the customary Austrian ones.
