Place a hefty cleaver at the end of a long, stout shaft, and the leverage
which the pole gives the wielder will enable him to cleave through
armor. The voulge has no provision to keep the enemy at a distance in
its simple form, but if the top front or back edge is ground down so as
to provide a pointed or dagger-like tip, the weapon assumes a more
complete form. The voulge was sometimes backed with a spike or
hooked spike to make a crude guisarme-voulge, a combination-form
weapon which will be discussed later.
