Scope note:

Leading staffs with heads imitating those of various other staff weapons, but most commonly having a broad, pointed blade with a rounded base, often with two pointed lugs like a partisan or a crossbar like a boar spear. They were used in Great Britain and Continental Europe from the 18th into the mid-19th century by infantry subordinate officers, particularly English sergeants.
