Ok Evgeny, glad to hear it
This has happened before though, so just wanted to make sure.

Yes, Evgeny. This type is very closely based on the Ottoman form.

Indeed, probably Arab/Druze variation. The Druze people call it 'Clink', a horseman's weapon.

Place of a find does not comply with this version.

Hello Evgeny,

Here are some war hammers from the Landeszeughaus in Graz , an arsenal like collection.
This has become quite an interesting thread thanks to all the comments of the forum members.
As Ibrahiim has already pointed out, it does seem that the hammer you've got there is indeed European.
I'm sure it is not a reworked big spike, I have some 17th C spikes here, but I don't know if it would be appropriate to post them.

kind regards

Ulfberth
