Description from the seller

Mace, a medieval blunt weapon, that was used not only as a weapon, but also as a statement of your position in the hierarchy of the society. This type of mace was wielded by nobility.
The real use of this weapon was against a plate armor (it penetrated and absolutely demolished what was behind it), but also if an opponent had a metal jacket (or leather), it was breaking bones and opening wounds behind it.
Mostly used by cavalry, the real pro was - it faced an opponents at any direction (unlike a war hammer or an axe).

Whole weapon is handforged, welded together, cleaned, then sandpapered by hand and then sprayed with transparent matt lacquer designed for metal.
* This item was created for interior display (otherwise the lacquer will fade away by rain and humidity and it will start to rust).
