American Spontoon Spear (MAA)
Cold Steel® Man at Arms (MAA) American Spontoon
The medieval man of arms was a robust and reliable fighter who exhibited great martial skill with a variety of weapons. He was the veteran of many conflicts and was often the first to enter the fray. To honor these robust earth salt warriors, Cold Steel® created a series of real newsmen's weapons called the Man at Arms Collection.
These battle-ready weapons may not have the polished silver steel structure of Cold Steel's cutting-edge weapons®, but are quite similar in quality and performance. And when well lubricated, they are shimmabyly beautiful by themselves.
The Man at Arms collection features a selection of some of cold steel's best ®, but at a considerably reduced price. If you've always wanted a Cold Steel ® but couldn't buy one, this collection was made for you.
The spontoon is basically a reduced-end weapon or a winged spear that often served as a substitute for a rifle or musket in colonial America. Issued in substantial quantity on both sides of all conflicts, from the War of France and India (1754-1763) to the War of 1812, it was carried both as a weapon and as a rank badge or authority by commissioned and non-commissioned officers. Cold Steel President ® Lynn C. Thompson was fascinated by the sponge after reading Tim Willocks' novel, The Twelve Children of Paris(3 times!) And decided to make a Cold Steel model® based on historical examples.
The blade of the Cold Steel ® has approx. 27 cm long and 4 mm thick, approx. Wings of 9 cm on each side. Designed primarily for pushing, it is also able to perform cuts and blows, while its sharp wings provide substantial capture and entrapment potential as well. Mounted on a sturdy ash wood mast with a decorative 3-ring system, it is suitable for any colonial reenactment and is a fearsome standalone weapon by itself.
