Morning star

Morning stars (also "morningstar") were a simple type of one-handed melee weapon.

Description
Morningstars were very similar to a spiked club, but with refinements. Their shafts were usually made of wood and longer than a heavy mace. Their heads were typically round and covered in metal set. Around twenty spikes were set into this metal, radiating like a star, with the biggest spike extending straight from the top.
