I'd also be curious to know how you determined what length to use. I've used a combination method--historical precedent + aesthetic appeal (what looks best) + feel. My current halberd project is 7'.


Here is a graphic I did a while back to compare different lengths of shafts with the Italian Bill & an early version of my Langue de Boeuf custom project with A & A. At this point in time I was still debating getting the Bill and requesting a shorter shaft mostly because the full length one as made by A & A is almost as long as my ceiling is high. :eek:

In any case it does give an idea of the aesthetics of different lengths.
