War Hammers

I purchased this as a deal of the day.  Great price...fast delivery.  It came well packed and in very good condition.  Some have complained of imperfections.  Mine was in very good condition although the cord wound handle did look somewhat dirty...I'm assuming from the handling of it by the packer who probably had oil on his hands from the hammer itself.....yes....it is well oiled so be careful.
As far as a weapon....this would be formidable.  A good weight that could cause serious damage and a spiked end that would easily penetrate metal.  It adds nicely to my collection of various items from MR.  I've had great service and experience with MR.
Will definitely order again.

I received this hammer as a Christmas present and was very pleased.  It currently has a place of honor in my display case.

I own another War Hammer from (brand x). And while still a fine hammer, not to brag, I am a larger warrior at 5' 8, 200 pounds of muscle, who trains regularly. So when "Heavy" Warhammer arrived I was not disappointed !!! When they say heavy they mean it !! Not too heavy as to be unwieldy in one hand, but NOT for the faint of heart. A GREAT shield/hammer combo. The etching is a very nice touch. As in all wood products it may shrink/swell a tiny bit, which I DID notice here in Florida, but nothing to worry about and barely noticeable. My only complaint is the lack of some sort of buttcap. But that's an easy fix. Love this Hammer, quickly became my favorite 👍

Okay ~ I'll be totally blunt. I bought this war hammer as an extra little gift for my husband. We were really impressed with it. The craftsmanship and balance are fantastic. We have a lot of dogs and have a lot of big old beef joint bones laying around. The hubs decided to give the War Hammer a try. We went outside with a really solid chunk of bone (about the size a a grapefruit). He hit it with the war hammer...not even all that hard. The bone  shattered into shards!
So, our mighty war hammer has been moved to a special place in the house for potential protection, if necessary. All I can say is WOW! Everyone who's played around with it LOVES IT!

I just received this war hammer after purchasing it from the deal of the day.  It arrived quickly and well packed.  This is an awesome weapon.  Beautiful in appearance and formidable as a weapon.  The spiked end is very sharp and would do serious damage if put to use.  Balance is great.  Wonderful feel.  The workmanship is outstanding.  Delighted with this purchase.

My first purchase from the Battlecry line and it exceeded all expectations! Outstanding. Solid. Massive. Love the finish!

Interesting the earlier comment about not liking the square handle. I think it's a more authentic look, and when wielding in battle chances are good that fighters wore gauntlets or at very least gloves.

Epic, deadly! Well made, good materials and workmanship. A welcome addition to my collection.

This Warhammer means serious business. Totally solid, nothing loose, like the "Battlecry" look. Long enough to knock a rider off his horse and a RAZOR sharp spike for finishing the job. 500 years ago I would have felt totally confident bringing this to a real battlefield.

This has to be one of Windlass Steelcraft's/Museum Replicas best designs. It is a sturdy piece with just enough heft without being too weighty. Perfect for a medieval knight or footman to wield and looks like it came directly from a museum! Very happy with this piece!

Windlass Steelcrafts and Museum Replicas have outdone themselves again! This Warhammer has perfect balance and weight as well as a deadly spike that excels at penetration on sheet metal, wood and everything else I have tested it against, without leaving a mark on the head.
