It just amazes me the idea of finding something like this in a house where it has lain for so many centuries, for me as an American this is through-the-looking-glass fantasy stuff. It makes sense the shaft would dismount easy, if it comes out from the head upon impact there is less likelihood of it pulling the flaming point out. Such a fragile thing to have lasted so long in working order. Thanks for the post Matchlock.
