Yeah isnt a mace used for anti armor? Because of the bludgeoning factor? I mean don't get me wrong getting grazed with that would hurt but getting grazed of the sharp side of a sword would hurt more... Hmm...

I suppose either would be pretty damn deadly when it really comes down to it if you get a solid Hit. Though not as easy to conceal as mace

Swords need cared for, sharpened and all that.

A metal ball on a rod is a metal ball on a length of metal that can crack bone. Ball comes off, I still got a metal rod.

Yeah it sounds heavy as fuck. And also like there's a safe place to grab. I'm like a sort. There's no safe place on a sword there's also no safe place with chemical weapons...

So back to Bear mace.

Grabbing a sword to control it was more common than you think! Especially when wearing gloves, but a skilled fighter can hold on to the flat of a blade with the bare hand, and usually not get hurt
