Guardian Spear

The Guardian Spear is a traditional weapon of the Adeptus Custodes.[1]

Overview

Guardian Spears are halberd-like power weapons[1] so heavy that it would take several ordinary men to lift it[4] and incorporating a ranged weapon at its tip. The weapon's powerful ranged and close combat duality complements the fighting style of the bodyguard force wielding it, giving them good capabilities in both close combat and at a distance. In battle, Custodes spin these weapons in great arcs, slaying enemies with each strike, be it in melee combat or from afar.[1]

As symbols of their role as sentinel, Deathwatch Watch Masters are also given Guardian Spears known as Vigil Spears.[7]
