a shoe remover?

Don't think it's a shoe remover.

Must have said, it is 75 mm long, heavy, probably bronze cast.

She could be very right, searching similar images brings up poleaxes so fits in there

to me it looks like it might be connected to a Post and belong back in the days when they did those duels with the Knight riding horses and I think they are called Joists but were used for something else maybe as a symbol to their kingdom.....just guessing here lol

Jousts. Joists are part of the bones of houses, jousts are the things mounted knights did for fun.

Worth a lot if genuine, but there's a whole lot of fakes going around. Still a nice item irregardless Smile
