Medieval Weaponry

 

The term "medieval weaponry" is a bit of a broad term. It can signify a weapon from the medieval period which was from about 500 to 1500.

And the term can also apply to a weapon that is intimidating, very rough looking and no-nonsense. Generally both of these definitions apply when we refer to medieval weaponry.

Here is a selection for you to check out.
