The spear arrived today and it is a beautiful piece in the hand and can certainly be applied in the martial manner of Chinese spears even if the head maybe considered a little heavy.
The twist core section is hollow ground/forged and there is a very subtle medial ridge within this section so can it be considered a Budiak???
Images and further detail in a few weeks.
Nice spears Bill.

Hi Gav-
The local dialect (Tausug) for spear in Sulu is Budjak
