Interesting Hungarian polearm called Vibard. I saw something similar but wider during my visits to castles in Northern Croatia (in double monarchy with Hungary until 1919).

Cool. Kind of a European naginata.

Wouldn’t be surprised if it has oriental origins or at least influence.

Looks like a polearm we call "Kuse" or "Breschmesser" in Germany:
