Six Flange Mace, Mace with Six Striking Blades

Enjoy Six Flange Mace, Mace With Six Striking Blades

Six-bridled mace, mace with six striking blades



Maces of this type were used for hundreds of years because they were simple and inexpensive to produce and were also very effective against enemies wearing plate armour. The aim of striking blades was to concentrate the weight and force of the blow on one or two narrow, protruding ribs in order to better transmit the force and thus be able to crush flesh, bone and armour. A heavy mace blow could stop the heart of an armoured opponent or injure him so badly that he could no longer move his arm, leg, knee or elbow and was therefore unable to fight. The mace was used by guardsmen, archers, foot soldiers, men-at-arms and knights.



The mace offered here with six striking blades may have a rather simple design, but is therefore suitable for anyone interested in any scene or reenactor, and at a moderate price.
