A halberd is not the same as a battle axe.

But there isn't a halberd in the picture.

You're right, I haven't had my coffee yet. He's holding it so high that I somehow figured the pole was longer.

The broadsword. The buckler. The angry fetus cupped in upheld hand.

Someone just broke it in half, that's why he's so angry

Chainmail/shield guy politely: and where, pray tell, would this Pie in the oven be, that I might use my ovenmit on it?

I can't look up the historical context of your group chat.

If you could find information about the historic context of the template (where was the picture published, when was it published, what is depicted, what timeframe is depicted, etc (or simply the name and original source)), that would be great.

No need for downvotes, I'm just curious.

This is the detail I'm interested in:

After 14th century miniature, published on Magasin Pittoresque, Paris, 1845

Now I have to find that miniature.

Would that make it a Hal, or a Berd? Or a Albe if you take the middle half I guess.

Guy in the middle: "Should I use flat skewers for the shish kebab, or this round one?"
