I had a D&D character who used a Lucerne Hammer, which I'm seeing is essentially a bec de corbin.

The flail seems fun, I mean who doesn't like moving parts and swingy things? I hear they were useful for reaching around shields. With my luck, I'd probably kill myself trying to use it.

The caveman in me calls out for rock though. It's the ultimate finishing move.

Hard to beat a bec de corbin - that thing will punch straight through even plate armor.
