Johnny,
yes Original Pikes .. they are late 1400s points remounted as needed by the Luzern Zeughaus , But the Shafts are orginal to period of use .. and interestingly both Branded " CL" on the Butts for Canton Luzern , so they would not be Cut on the march ! Short like 5 and 6" heads very long Langets . about 15.4 feet long and the diamond section Points and futher sharpened by turing the points to a "point " Needle sharp . In a few minutes of use I could point and take out a object as small as a eye from the full length ! with one hand . They are not the Most expensive weapon I have by far .. but are not cheap :-) )
