Very beautiful piece, indeed!

-Don't most lances have a butt-plate or counter-balance? I agree too long for a pike, but perhaps a spear?

I know most pikes had great lengths, but what about trench pikes and boarding pikes? Again, I am not suggesting this to be either of those, but classifying the weapon strictly on length might be a little risky.
