Hi All
Finally got this spear, I put as new tread as I wanted to change title to reflect the spear. Attached overall length 1.2 M spear with digging end and spear head. What is unusual to me is that the tangs of both the spear head and the digging tool are bound in iron, v nicely done and forged to my eye but i am happy to be corrected. Spear head is quiet sharp and again forged, I am not sure how to describe the head but the 2 cutting sides are not in line but a central ridge has been forged to give a kink running longitudinally down the blade, to add strength i assume. So has anyone got any ideas as to origin, As it has a digging end would this indicate more hunting/foraging than fighting. It has a lovely weight and balance to it and would throw and trust well I feel. regards, Ken |
