PersonFromPorlock Posted February 24, 2013 #2 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Interesting, but it could be just that as the Roman economy collapsed and weapons became harder to secure, a tool/weapon like an axe was more useful to part-time marauders than a pure weapon like a sword. Barbarians need firewood, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
