Hi, can anyone please tell me whether they used bardiche? For example: reenactors (czechs) of the blå regiment/gamla blå widely use this weapon. |

No, they most certainly did not use the bardiche or any similar weapon. No evidence at all that it was issued let alone being manufactured. |

If you have pikemen, why would you need your musketeers to be issued bardish axes? |

@huevans011: Muscovite soldats' regiments were sometimes using combination of pikemen and berdish-armed musketeers. You cannot have too many weapons when facing winged hussars ;) |

Thanks, Daniel! Reenactors use them as musket rest. |
