Default South African throwing spear

I just thought this is quite nice.I like the way the haft maker has carved a swollen end to balance the spear.To me these spears are more like big darts.The blade seems rather a little large for hunting, a volley of these, if not killing you, hanging out of a limb or somewhere else in a body would reduce an enemies fighting ability.Tim
