Product Overview
The English War Hammer is a refined late-medieval weapon designed to counter the rise of plate armor in 15th-century warfare.
Dating to circa 1430, this war hammer is expertly replicated from an example in a private collection. Lighter and faster than many blunt weapons of its time, it was favored by mounted knights for its speed, control, and armor-crushing effectiveness.
This reproduction features a durable American hickory handle, offering excellent balance and handling. Measuring just over 25 inches in length and weighing 1¾ pounds, it delivers extended reach without sacrificing agility. Crafted by Windlass Steelcrafts, it is well suited for reenactment, display, education, or collection.
