  Battle Bardiche
The Sparth - or Bardiche was used throughout Scandinavia, Russia and Eastern Europe throughout the 16th and 17th centuries.
As the Bardiche has neither a lug or hook at the back, nor a spear like point ahead of the top of the haft, which makes it quite different from the halberd.
Although it seems fairly certain that the true bardiche of this form was not in use before 1500 A.D., there are numerous medieval manuscript pictures which show weapons of a very similar nature as early as 1250 A.D. Head 27 3/4" long, Pole 42" long.

Nethack calls the bardiche a "long poleaxe" and that is exactly right, if you assume that the "long" applies to "axe" and not "pole".
A bardiche is nothing more than a long axe blade on a stick.

The main difference between the two is that the bardiche is characterized by a rear facing concavity on the uppermost part of the blade.
The guisarme (and the bardiche) have only one eye towards the upper end of the blade and have a secondary fastening at the bottom of the blade which is pin-like or strap (langet) like.
I would describe a Bardiche as a very long edged axe were the top point is very usable as a thrusting weapon and were the bottom point is connected to the shaft in the way Russ mentioned or a second socket (Not sure about the last.

Almost like an axe with a long handle, the strong wooden handle of the bardiche is about the height of an average human and crafted from a steel reinforced heavy piece of wood.
Aug 6 2006, 09:22 AM Well, Strung is a rajamala now, and his level 1 bastard sword was slower than a whisper but faster than a dwhisper, so I had to either speed it up or slow it down.
With a wicked gleam to it's steel edge, it almost gives the illusion of grinning at you in a violent, frightening manner, and, being about the height of an average person, it's size doesn't soften the outwardly dangerous look to it.

As a small firm, Challenger caters to a niche market of specialized mechs designed for expert and veteran warriors (its CEO Bardiche Thanos is a retired MechWarrior himself).
As a veteran Warrior, Bardiche was sickened by the way some pilots’ lives were cheapened when their commanders used “swarm tactics”, assigning them light but cheap Mechs to assault heavier lances and fortified strongholds, thereby winning the battle by sacrificing men and Mechs.
Bardiche also knew that merely having ejection seats in Mechs was not enough to guarantee a pilots’ survival—many don’t eject in time, and for those who do, statistics show more than 60% of pilots are maimed or killed during ejection as they either got trampled or easily shot by merciless enemy Mechs.

It's really much easier to just buy the darn thing (beserker bardiches used to be a LOT easier to get before they updated the invasion again.
Beserker spawns were easier to trigger and a LOT more beserkers spawned at a time, so the bardiches are still relatively cheaper from that compared to the effort it takes to get beserkers to appear now)
Of course, on the flipside, there is always that chance to get Inavlis' Burchette from the regular invasion generals, apparently-near-nonexistant as it is. And of course, the rations and orders and such if you still want some for some bizarre reason.

 poleaxe | | Dictionary & Translation by Babylon
The pollaxe is a type of European polearm which was very popular for foot combat during medieval times.
It went by other names and spellings such as poll-axe, pole axe, polax, or Hache (French meaning axe); however the accepted term is pollaxe.
Sometimes weapons such as the bardiche or the Danish axe are mistakenly called pole axe as they are indeed axes mounted on poles, but many etymological authorities consider the poll- prefix historically unrelated to "pole", and actually means "head."

 Items - Weapons - Polearms
Polearms have been used for centuries as weapons of destruction, though their roots stem from humble farming tools.
Derived from the spear, the axe, the scythe, and the hammer, polearms are any combinations of those, and come in all shapes and sizes, from the rudimentary war-scythes to the devastating bardiches and glaives.
The polearm can easily strike beyond the range of even the largest swords and axes.
