Bar Mace

The Bar Mace is a weapon born of sheer strength and simplicity — a brutal reminder of the raw power wielded by medieval warriors. Designed to crush helms, shatter swords, and batter shields, it required no finesse, only the might and determination of the fighter behind it. Heavy, balanced, and fearsome, this reproduction brings the legendary impact of the mace back to life, just as it would have been carried by knights and foot soldiers across Europe.

Inspired by Historical Finds

Remains of a mace of this type were discovered in the River Thames, confirming its widespread use throughout medieval Europe. The bar mace was one of the most effective anti-armor weapons of the period, capable of delivering devastating blunt-force trauma even against the toughest plate. Unlike edged weapons, it required no sharpening — just brute force. This weapon represents the raw, unrefined side of medieval combat, where strength and endurance were often more decisive than elegance or speed.
