I agree with His Grace.  Very sad indeed.




Madu's are period  - I have seen them (in a medieval German castle, no
less) and it would be a real shame to lose them.

As Sir Gilly always said - there are no weird weapons, just one
dimensional fighters.  <grin>

Sir Michael,

Thanks for posting this.  I have not been following the discussions
since my "retirement" from the Earl Marshal position.

What did jump out at me was this:

"VII. Weapon Standards
B. Single Handed Weapons
4. No weapon may have A BUTT/POMMEL SPIKE OR a cutting and/or smashing
surface at both ends."

That sounds like the death knell for madu's.

So sad......
