By The Sword Catalog : Arms and Armour : Maces and Morning Stars


Maces and Morning Stars
The mace, a short club like weapon with a flanged head, was a symbol of rank and status as well as an effective weapon against plate and mail armour. Unlike the sword or axe, the mace was easy to use, very tough and did not require sharpening. The morning star is similar to the mace however it typically has longer and sharper spikes.

Each weapon is individually hand crafted by some of the best arms crafters in Europe. They are able to study in depth original pieces from museums and private collections in Europe. Old-World craftsmanship ensures attention to detail.

Each piece is fully functional and battle ready. Although we won't recommend using the morning stars for live steel/re-enactments they will perform just as well as the originals and extreme care should be taken.

Shipping time is between 4 to 12 weeks.

Whether you desire museum quality display pieces or battle ready arms we feel confident you can find it here at By The Sword, Inc.
