Halberds were the primary weapon of the Swiss, mostly in the 14th century. The halberd was an effective weapon for a foot soldier against cavalry, and in skilled hands the weapon could dismount a knight and seal his fate. Halberd came to prominent use during the 14th and 15th centuries. The halberd was best known for the sheer weight and cutting power of its axe head. It was able to carve through the armor commonly used by knights upon its introduction to battlefield. Also, the halberds were reinforced with metal rims over the shaft, thus making it an effective weapon for blocking other weapons, like swords.
