Lucern hammer
This weapon is very similar to the halberd, but the spike on its end
was generally longer than that of a halberd, and instead of an axe
head the Lucern hammer featured a smaller, hammer-like head with
three prongs. Evidently this function was not as efficient against armor
as the axe blade, for it was replaced by the halberd amongst the
ranks of the Swiss after the 14th century.
