Cold Steel Men at Arms English Bill Polearm CS89MEN

The Cold Steel Men at Arms English Bill is a striking revival of one of history’s most effective polearms, reimagined with modern materials and battlefield-ready construction. Drawing inspiration from the tools wielded by medieval English infantry, this imposing weapon is built for serious collectors, historical reenactors, and martial arts practitioners who demand performance and authenticity in equal measure.

Measuring an impressive 89.5 inches overall and weighing 81.1 ounces, the English Bill features a fully sharpened head designed to mirror the brutal versatility of its historical predecessor. The head includes a piercing spike, a broad cutting blade, and a forward-curving hook—all forged and sharpened for true combat capability. Whether thrusting, slashing, or snagging, this head is built to handle real-world use with devastating effectiveness.

The extra-deep steel socket provides maximum reinforcement where the head meets the shaft, minimizing flex and enhancing structural stability during heavy swings or impact. Cold Steel doesn’t cut corners when it comes to strength, and this weapon is no exception.

The haft is made from stout ash wood—a traditional choice for polearms thanks to its resilience, shock absorption, and dependable grip. The natural grain of the ash not only lends a rugged, battle-worn look but also delivers the functional durability needed for full-speed drills, live demonstrations, or static display.

Part of Cold Steel’s Men at Arms series, the English Bill combines historical design with practical construction, offered at a price point accessible to serious enthusiasts without sacrificing quality. Every detail—from the razor-sharp edges to the reinforced socket and traditional wood handle—has been engineered for realistic use, training, or display.

Whether you're building out a medieval arsenal, practicing historical European martial arts, or simply appreciate the craftsmanship of period weapons, the Cold Steel English Bill stands as a formidable addition.
