Sparth

The sparth is an Irish polearm that features a broad, single-edged blade bound to a long shaft.

Description
Similar to the Scottish Lochaber axe in design, the sparth is a poleaxe of Irish origin which consists of a broad single-edged blade that is bound to the end of a pole rather than mounted on top of it. This axe head is exceedingly long, straight on its backside, and convex on its keen edge. A thin spike protrudes from the top of this blade.

History
During the French Revolution, the sparth was among the types of weapons available for purchase in Paris and was priced at 5,000 francs.
