Cracking images, thank you!
Yet, none show the high charge position. The re-enactors look in-experienced. I've trailed a pike on and off since 1979 and you'd get smacked for holding it like that. Arm need to be full extended out the back of the body with the pike underneath it, and gripped firmly under the chin with the other arm
The black and white image is intriguing. You'd need to be superman to hold (and fight) with a pike like that
Thanks for sharing, excellent!
