I got smacked in the face for thinking that the Makedonian Hetairoi commonly used the two-handed grip.

The arguments made were that it would take near-perfect horsemanship in order to utilize a two-handed grip. And many of the depictions I've seen of the Hetairoi seem to show the lance couched in only one arm while the other was used for steering. I'm sure The Persian Cataphract and Meinpanzer will comment. They seem very knowledgeable in this area.![]()
