Wurfkreuz (Throwing Cross)

Wurfkreuz (Throwing Cross) – A Rare and Deadly Historical Weapon

Product Overview:
The Wurfkreuz, or Throwing Cross, is a unique and deadly weapon developed in 16th-century Germany. Originally used by smugglers, poachers, students, and even knights, this versatile weapon can function as a stabbing/thrusting tool, a thrown projectile, or a pickaxe-style weapon. Due to its effectiveness in close-quarters combat, it was eventually outlawed in Gotha, cementing its place in history as a forbidden but formidable weapon.
