You're not wrong. But you also have to take into account that most weapons of war were simply repurposed farm equipment.
Farmers and peasents would be forced to fight with whatever they had on hand and the most successful weapons were slightly redesigned to be better suited for combat. Hence the war scythe.
Eventually they evolved into things like halberds or billhooks and other polearms.
