A pitchfork is a farming tool ideally used for gathering and pitching hay. More often than not however, it appears to serve a more practical function as a weapon rather than an agricultural aide. During the 18th and 19th centuries, a pitchfork was one of the more common weapons of choice for angry lynch mobs seeking to track down and destroy some errant monster that is reeking havoc within their village.
