Hi guys!!!


Recently I was looking for a teutonic knight figurine to add in my collection , so i decide to search .. and I found this figurine..

I suppose the sword that the great master carries is a fantasy concept of a chopper/cleaver ... but what do you think?

Is it possible that a great master carry this kind of weapon?? I mean .. instead of a sword ..

Happy

It would appear to be an interpretation of a glaive from the Maciejowski Bible (also known as the Morgan Bible).
