Hello. I am going to take part in the tournament in a month. I will have the 14th century european armor and I will use a halberd. But I want to make another one weapon, actually a two-handed axe. So I want to know what kind of such axes existed in the 14th century, and especially I want to know if there were double-edged two-handed axes (I like heavy weapons Big Grin ). So I need especially photos and maybe some details...

I think you will have to look very hard for double edged axes in any period, but there are enough doublehanded axes in 14th century
