Persian double axe

Machine-translated from the German article

The Persian double axe is a weapon from Persia (present-day Iran) with two opposing single-edged, crescent-shaped blades, attached with an eye to a metal shaft. Sometimes a three-sided, pointed spike of varying length is attached between the blades at the striking head. The double axes were used by ethnic groups in Persia and are often decorated with engravings or silver patterns in the (Indian) koftgari style.
