Middle Ages Morningstar Mace

It's a beautiful piece,and I brought 2

Looks good and the spikes would pierce a skull with ease. Did an excellent job on a couple of canalopes. Yes the head and shaft were hollow. Shaft is steel. Don't use it on wood. Spikes seem to be pot metal with chrome. Very sharp though. Have issues with 3 of them not screwing in. Too much flash in the threads. As imsaid mine WAS hollow. Filled it with kitty litter. Added about 3.5 pounds to it. Wish there were a way to get replacement spikes. Would be worth it.

I purchased this for my father he was extremely happy with it it came durable and battle ready thanks budk!!!

No devastating blows will be dealt with this poor excuse of a weapon, the rod is super thin metal and already rusted on the inside when I got it. How do I know what the inside looks like you might ask... Well that would be because the head fell off hitting a cardboard box. Coltan must work for the website to have left a review like that lol. Good ONLY FOR DISPLAY and should not be advertised as usable in any way.

As a weapon collector it is an awesome addition to my collection. As a collector I never really use my swords and knifes other than a few pocket knives here and there or if I have a left over pumpkin or of course if I were for some reason in a life or death situation. I feel if it ever came down to it and I had to grab this for protection it would do enough damage to stop the attacker or at least postpone the attacker until I could get to my pistol and/or phone. extremely satisfied with this weapon being added to my collection.

it looks heavier than it is, the spikes are held in with glue, the handle wears down very easily, and dont hit anything with too much force because the glue will come undone and break off the screw in fasteners, not battle ready but if you're buying it for looks I would suggest it

When I first saw the picture I thought the haft of this weapon was way too skinny to hit anything with.. After the video I decided to risk it and purchase it. Good decision! It is light enough for anyone to handle it easy, but also heavy enough around the head to gain momentum. Yes the spikes are removable and can out pretty easily, but if you care that much you can always glue them in. Great buy, very destructive!

solid mace would recommend this to a friend no doubt

This is a well built weapon I am impressed it is a lot longer than I thought so I am happy, but I do not like how flimsy the grip is it feels like it will peel right off with no effort, but it is still a great buy I recommend this. It looks cool as h**l too.

I own 2 of these weapons, and both are the finest I have ever seen, can be used in so many different ways of attack and defense, from a striking weapon to a throwing weapon....spikes can be removed to provide a stainless steel wrecking ball!!!!! Highly recommended!!!!!!

The mace itself is absolutely amazing for the price I got it on sale but when I used it on some thin wooden slats one of the spikes broke off. I've been looking to replace the broken spike with no luck.

This is a wonderful ornamental morning star that is a show stopper and great conversational piece. I dare not destruction test it as it's spikes and head are non magnetic (and seem to be aluminium). But as a wall hanger, this is a crazy scary thing. The shaft is magnetic and most likely steel tube. Wall hanger or not, this is a murderous weapon in itself, it will maul flesh and bone like a huge bear paw. But against hard targets, I can only guess that it will come off badly.

The mace comes with a cheap Crome on the outside that will quickly peel off, The spikes come very sharp , The club Is hollow but still sturdy , Im going to get it plated with a satin finish and It should be good as new.

When I first saw this I loved it, but my friend knocked the head off when he slammed a piece of wood with it too hard. Overall very good.

This is a very fun weapon. when i first saw it i thought it was a nice looking spiked mace for a good price. so i bought it (cheapest place i could find it on the internet. all the others were about $40.00 at least)i wanted one that was big and intimidating but also strong. this was mainly big and intimidating but a little on the weak side (i mean a little).<br /><br />i know this because i work at a movie theater and got the chance to kill a standie with it (very very fun if you get the chance do it) but it threw out a good beating but someone must have used it to hard because the head on it gave way just a tiny bit not even noticeable to anyone that is not looking for it.<br /><br />but for what it was capable of doing that was nothing major at all and is still one of my favorites

True, breaking through a door would destroy this thing and there are fit and finish issues. However, this thing would be very devastating to a human body, and it is lightweight enough to be used by a teenage girl. For the price, you can't beat the intimidation factor and true danger of this self defense weapon. When my daughter goes to college, she will have one in her room. BTW, if it is by your bed at night, don't accidently hit it with your foot.

Awesome looking but the one I got is defective. 4 of the holes are too big for the threads and that just makes it look retarded.

Bought this for home defense, and it is pretty intimidating. The handle is long enough (about 28-30"), and the spikes are sharp enough, to keep an intruder at bay and to do some damage, but it isn't really heavy enough to deliver truly crushing blows (however, if you hit an intruder in the head, it would probably be lethal). Just remember, this is a close-quarters battle weapon, and if the opponent has a gun, you're in trouble. I'm going to velcro some pepper spray to the handle so I can soften him up a little at a distance, first. The head and handle are hollow and the quality of the spikes' bolts, which screw into tapped holes in the round head, are rather poor - they're not straight, and the bases of the spikes don't sit flush on the head. So, the assembled product looks good from a distance, but up close, not so much. Since I wasn't concerned about authenticity, it's OK. I'm thinking of filling the mace head with sand to increase its mass (the handle will probably also fill; I'm not too sure about the method of attachment). I've still got to figure out where to keep it handy - you DO NOT want to kick step on or fall onto this - it will mess you up. One of these days, I'll test it on a big beef roast. I think I'll name it, "Adolph, the Tenderizer"!

Its really awesome first off. it had a dent but i dont mind its not like i'm gonna care. mashes watermellons like nothing else, great buy very light and easy to swing. the shiny coat started to peel befor i got it.

At first glance, it was awesome, lots of weight, but not too heavy, and just felt great in my hands. If your buying for display I'd say a five star, but when you use it like in the video, it's terrible. Three swings in hitting two litter bottle and it's crooked. Huge disappointment.

it is pretty but i hit this on a watermellon and two of the spikes broke clean in half. whatever the spikes are made of it isnt steel. very disappointing

I think someone should have taken the time to assemble the product before selling it. Thier were many of the spikes that were crooked and did not fit in the holes flush. So SORRY but I will NOT recommend this product to any of my friends.

Like other reviewers have stated this is not stainless but chrome plated. The spikes that came with my mace are very sharp but almost half of the screws to attach the to the head were bent or had crushed threads. I had to use a pair of pliers just to get the majority of them to screw in. I wrapped the spikes with a towel to try and minimize damage but some were so bent i ended up scratching the spikes anyway. The handle is made out of the same metal they use on curtain rods and is hollow so I imagine it wouldn't hold up well under actual use. It's a nice display piece but I have got much better item from Bud K for less than $40.

DONT BUY IT! Save your money, just get a baseball bat. The head on it does not stay on it just flies off everytime you swing it. The handle is hollow and this is very light.

Extremely poor quality. The head came off on the first swing, and the handle crumpled like it was made of tin foil. EXTREMELY CHEAP MATERIALS STAY AWAY!!!

Yeah, opened the box, its cheap. Well I have a gun show coming up, and they were 2 for the price of 1. I may be able to get out from under there.

Although this mace is priced well it's quality lacks very much. First of all the wrecking ball is one solid piece it's two put together. Next I took a couple swings and the paint was chipping off the ball. The spikes would not go in so i had to tighten them in.The screws stripped having to put them in i would only recamand this for display the ball it's self is glued to the pole.

This mace is very cheap. After only hitting two water bottles with it, the spikes were bent and some were broken. It is not stainless steel, as advertised. It is actually made of aluminum, and therefore breaks and bends very easily. The chrome finish peels off extremely easily and the handle wrapping is cheap and will most likely peel off. I will not be keeping this mace. Hopefully I'll be able to return it and spend the $40 on something worthwhile. Unless you want this mace simply for display, do not waste a single dollar on it. I do not recommend it at all.
