{{EcclesiarchyPortal}}These heavy pikes measuring more than three meters in length are designed to break the charge of mutants, daemons, and other creatures of the warp and keep them at bay.{{Fn|1}}
Mounting a blade of adamantine-silver edged with diamantine on a hollow steel tube, '''Daemon Pikes''' are inscribed with chants, prayers, and sermons meant to ward off evil, while the metre of shaft below the head is set with short forward-point spines, ending in two broad blades that both prevent the enemy from advancing and the user from getting its weapon stuck in the foe.{{Fn|1}}
The sacred materials, etched prayers, holy water and blessed oils anointing the weapon make it particularly efficient against the daemonic.{{Fn|1}}
