Ok so I've looked all over the internet but to no avail. Does anybody know what the the double edged spear that has the half moon blades on the end is called? I see the weapon in many pictures but i can't for the life of me find what it is. Anybody know the answer? Please and thankyou

The Kopesh? If you have a picture of what you're referring to, maybe I can help.

He's often shown with the Was-Scepter. Your description sounds similar.

See:

Is that it?

I wondered afterwards if those weapons were the one in question- but I don't know that those actually existed in AE. I can't recall off hand.

The was scepter is very possible. It's held by pretty much all of the gods of AE. A symbol of power. And, IMO, a symbol of control over chaos- order, as it were.
