Sir Wolf:
the ash shaft i bought from a friend. he gave me a shorter one that the unmounted pole ax head is going to go on too. i wanted one of both sizes like you see in a lot of period paintings, but most reenactors don't have the shorter version.
Sir Brian:
Wow they look great! :)
*Now I have poleaxe envy!* ;)
Sir Edward:
Nice! Yeah I still need to mount a pair of heads I have as well. I just need to decide what to use for the poles.
Sir James A:
Nicely done! I see a tiny "Sir Wolf Jr" in the background as well. ;)
Sir Rodney:
Nice work Sir Wolf!

I may be in the minority here, but poleaxes hold my attention and fascination more so than other medieval weapon types. *ducks*

A replacement wheelbarrow handle from your local big-box hardware store works great. They are 5' long and give you a finished product between 5'6" and 6' in length which is historically correct for some poleaxes. I made a little tutorial a while back on myArmoury:
