They problem with macing nazis is that eventually you run out of mace
Then we need to switch over to old school maces.
It just gets blunter the more you bludgeon.
Yeah isnt a mace used for anti armor? Because of the bludgeoning factor? I mean don't get me wrong getting grazed with that would hurt but getting grazed of the sharp side of a sword would hurt more... Hmm...
I suppose either would be pretty damn deadly when it really comes down to it if you get a solid Hit. Though not as easy to conceal as mace

A flanged mace is the common counter to chainmail, circa 13th-century European armored combat. A curved sword is better for unarmored or those in animal hide like leather.
A mace (general) is a club with a head, which packs a more diffuse wallop than a bladed weapon or a spiked weapon. Spikes on a mace (such as a morning star) can help to focus and to punch through armor.
Not to be confused with a spiked flail, in which there's a chain between the handle and the head (a spiked ball or flanged star, like the one held by the Witch-king of Agmar) The chain helps circumvent shields, but it becomes very easy for the flailman to hit himself. Kinda like nunchaku.
