| 1. | halberd | ||
|
A polearm resembling a long-handled axe, the halberd also features a spike sprouting from the end of the haft that can be used as a spear, and a hook opposite the axe-head that was used to pull mounted knights from their horses. The King's guards crossed their halberds across the door to the throne room, denying the messenger entry.
