Description from the seller

Halberd, restored toppiece, 22.8 cm, rare

Halberd. These are rare, used for war, and much older than the daggers. Even older than the battleaxes.

Superior shape and flaking,
Early neolithic around 3500 B.C.

Halberd originally refurbished by the former Danish owner.

The nice shape and quality of this halberd deserved a restore.
Divestment from my very large private collection.
