The type of flail seen in your picture wasn’t used by the peasantry but nobility. Some crafty blacksmith probably saw drafted farmers take their threshing flail into battle as improvised weapon and thought about how to properly weaponize the concept. Also we are not talking about two flimsy sticks here. Flails used for threshing had to be sturdy as they needed to last the whole harvest season. They were made from hardwood and I can personally attest, that they are heavy indeed. The things one finds when clearing the grandparents barn …
As for the practicality of the weaponized flail: it was indeed of dubious use and it is questionable whether it saw widespread military adoption or whether it was the equivalent of “tacticool” gear of the middle ages. An iron club is indeed a more effective weapon and is commenly referred to as mace and if you take a look at a specific type of mace you can probably guess where the idea of the spiky ball came from.

I am always baffled as to what Microsoft gets away with because of their monopoly in the consumer market. Imagine them releasing Windows for the first time today.
Increasingly so, the more experienced I get…

No way, a treaty proposed by Russia would never entail such consequences! /s

If they’d post links to hit pieces or sites such as RT maybe.


I’ve recently noticed a lot of new accounts which post a whole series of news articles and then get deleted. Notot fake news or conspiracies but mostly reputable sites. No idea what’s going on there.
THC is AFAIK the component that produces the high and CBD it’s counterpart that soothes.
