Rest of pole arms ?

It has a simple edge blade. I'm wondering if it could be a rest of pole arms.
any comment on it will be welcome. Best Cerjak |
Looks like a glaive socket, European, maybe 16th, 17th century. Parade/guard/processional glaive, rather than a battlefield weapon. Looks like it might have had langets.
Some complete examples, with similar sockets and "guard" at socket/blade junction: http://www.clevelandart.org/art/1916.1536 http://www.clevelandart.org/art/1916.1532 http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/...e/search/25093 http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/...e/search/21953 http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/...e/search/25016 http://www.metmuseum.org/collection/...e/search/26794 (but most of these have short "wings" at the base of the blade) |

Timo,
Thank you so much, this glaive from the ducal guard looks from similar shape and also without wing like mine. Best Cerjak |
So good that you have it identified so fast, Jean-Luc :) .
Now you just have to find the other part of the blade ;) . Bonne chance :cool: |
