Warhammer

This is my warhammer:

warhammer

This smashing beauty is 25 inches long and not quite 2 pounds heavy. That’s not real heavy but the steel is very solid, and the hammer edges and spike point are sharp enough that you know they’d do serious damage to whatever they strike. Unlike with a sword, where you have a long edge to strike with, you have to strike precisely with the head of this hammer/spike to hurt a target. But where a sword edge won’t cut into/through plate armor, this weapon will no doubt either transfer painful energy (with the hammer) through plate armor, or will penetrate (with the spike) into plate armor enough to draw blood. Against someone without armor, give me a sword, but against someone in armor, give me this warhammer.
