#bohemian earspoon

Do you like polearms? I know I do. Halberds, bec-de-corbin, Bohemian Earspoon, voulges, all types of bills, guisarmes... I remember reading through the tables in the 1E AD&D PHB and being amazed that they all had different stats. Whatever.

“According to him it’s a Bohemian tablespoon +3″ -- For those without a good library nearby, the Bohemian earspoon on the AD&D weapons table was a mystery that sometimes was imagined as literally spoon-shaped, instead of simply a spear with a pair or lugs or small blades at the base of the head (little comic panel from a page corner in GameMaster Publications No 2, December 1985)

polyamory? no- [gestures at walls lined with halberds, glaives, voulges, crowbills, guisarmes, lucerne hammers, spetums, bardiches, ranseurs, bec de corbins, fauchards, partisans, bill hooks, falxes, lochaber axes, bohemian earspoons, and brandistocks] this is the polearmory

THIS IS A POLEARM

#what!!!

[oldschoolfrp]

Encyclopedic polearm typology from Gary Gygax’s “Appendix T: The Nomenclature of Polearms” in Unearthed Arcana, TSR, 1985 -- ten years after his Strategic Review article, 7 years after listing all these names in the Players Handbook without explaining what he meant.  Still no picture of the Bohemian earspoon, but his text describes it as a variant partisan.
