Would you like a weapon with six other weapon characteristics incorporated into it? It is the Crescent Moon Spear. It has the characteristics of a spear, a staff, a trident, a sword, a hook and a dagger.
Lu Bu, sometimes called Lu Feng Xian, was so famous with the Crescent Moon Spear that it is sometimes called Lu Bu Spear. Lu Bu lived at the start of the Three Kingdom Period in the 3rd century CE. For three days and night, Liu Bei, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei fought Lu Bu to a draw. Guan Yu was regarded as the Sage of Martial Arts, whereas Zhang Fei once fought an army at a bridge.
However, Lu Bu bad brawns but no brains. Later he was beheaded by Cao Cao, a great warlord.
The Crescent Moon Spear was a long weapon with a spear and a crescent moon attached to it. It is not only effective for thrusting like spear, but also useful for slashing like a hook and locking an opponent's weapon like a trident. The shaft of the Crescent Moon Spear can be used as a staff, and when withdrawn it can be used as a sword or a dagger. It is a very versatile weapon.
