Talk:Washing Pole/@comment-31560297-20170920081708

I believe the second part of Trivia(" Inspiration for the Washing Pole... ") is incorrect. The Washing Pole is basically an Odachi/Nodachi, while the Song-dynasty Zhan Ma Dao(or any other version of Zhanmadao for the matter) has a significantly longer handle than the Washing Pole.

Also Zhanmadao literally means "chop-horse-sword", the translation should be "horse-chopping sword". As its name suggests, Zhanmadao is a type of two-handed long sword used by footmen fighting against cavalries.

Just look at the handle damnit > <

I will go search and study a bit more to make sure before I delete that part.
