This is an impressive and spectacular piece! A few years back, Fagan & Co. had some of these for a high price back in the day. They also had some kreigsickles. I love the medieval peasant tools! (Bohemian ear spoons, lochaber axes, etc). Just wanted to say that it is an attention-grabber and appears to have honest aging/patina. The top spike, as noted, perhaps later? Maybe it was better protected based on how it was stored or ? Is there any signs of old oil/pitch on it?
