Pretty sure it only deals thrust damage but it wouldn't be the first time myself or the weapon descriptions are wrong. There was a similar debate with the barbed straight sword because they have similar movesets as their cousins. It may have the same animation and may have the same name in the files but it can have a different damage type.

When testing with the 2 handed heavy attack, you may just not have been counter attacking (and getting the bonus damage from your Leo Ring)because of the starting wind up and therefor were not getting a true counterattack (the window is pretty small...good bit less than half a second). Or maybe the Leo Ring is judging thrust damage off those file names instead of what it is actually dealing which would be funny actually. I guess someone should test this but I can't be bothered because I never use this weapon as well as 99% of everyone else lol. Slower weapons are never great for counter attacking Leo Ring builds anyways because less reliable.
