Bill-guisarme
There are quite a number of designs of the bill-guisarme. Each type
has the following features: 1) a sharp spear or awl point; 2) a large
hook formed from the body of the weapon; 3) a back spike for armor
penetration; and 4) several sharpened edges. Some forms of the bill-guisarme
have a sufficiently heavy blade and cutting edges placed so
that they are actually voulge-like. This form
of pole arm persisted the
longest of all save the pike and the halberd,
for it was certainly efficient
in all functions - piercing, holding off, cutting, penetrating, dismounting,
<>
and cleaving. The scorpion is one typical form
of the
bill-guisarme.
