High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A voulge (occasionally called a pole cleaver) is a type of polearm that existed alongside the similar glaive in medieval Europe.

First, the attachment of the voulge blade to the shaft was usually done by binding the lower two thirds of the blade to the side of the pole; the glaive would often have a socket built into the blade itself and was mounted on top of the pole. In addition, while both had curved blades, that of the voulge was broad and meant for hacking, while that of the glaive was narrow and meant more for cutting.
