Story
<p>Let them know by sponsoring this spectacular pole axe from 1470 in their name. This is likely to have been used in battle by a knight or soldier, the axe blades cutting through the armour plates of enemies. The hammer and spikes were also used in combat and the long handle could block an enemy's strike. This would be a fantastic item for any historical weaponry enthusiasts or would-be knights!</p><p><strong>The minimum donation to become a Silver Adopter of this object is £25.</strong> After clicking 'Donate', please enter this amount before continuing.
