Do French people generally know what a Halberd is? Because I think at least in Canada only RPG nerds and medieval history nerds have ever heard that word before…
The French do know how to decapitate heads. Usually they use a guillotine, but I guess they also know a halbard for when the guillotine is out of order.
The halberd expression I’ve only personally heard once from my wife who is a walking French expression generator. There’s a new one every other day. I generally hear the rope expression used a lot more.
