The weight of Alebardas (also known as halberds) and greatswords can vary depending on the specific design, material, and period. However, generally:
- Alebarda (Halberd):
Typically weighs between 2.5 to 4.5 kilograms (5.5 to 10 pounds). They are designed to be wielded with two hands, but are relatively lighter to allow for quick movements and leverage.
- Greatsword:
Usually weighs between 2.5 to 4 kilograms (5.5 to 8.8 pounds), though some historical examples can be slightly heavier. Greatswords are also two-handed weapons, designed for powerful strikes.
Summary:
Both weapons tend to have similar weight ranges, with slight variations depending on specific types and historical periods. Generally, alebardas tend to be slightly heavier than greatswords, especially considering their often larger size and the inclusion of additional features like the axe-head or spike.
