As plate armor became more durable, the sword became increasingly ineffective against a fully armored knight. Hammers, axes, and maces soon became the mounted knight's preferred close-quarters weapons. The warhammer developed rapidly and became one of the most important weapons. It was generally lighter and faster than a mace. It was often made slightly longer to increase reach, but could also be shortened if necessary.

This warhammer is a successful replica based on a piece in a private collection.
