medieval weapon
Knight's battle tool
A medieval weapon is any instrument of combat from the European Middle Ages, roughly the 5th through 15th centuries—swords, maces, crossbows, halberds, and the like.
The term often appears in discussions of fantasy games and historical reenactment: The shop sells replicas of medieval weapons.
Figuratively, calling something a medieval weapon suggests it's brutally old-fashioned or obsolete.
