My knowledge of Greek law is from a previous job as an archaeologist/ceramicist on Crete. The legal aspect is not something that I ever had to deal with directly, so I am only really aware of the basics.
Having said that, I think it would be very unlikely to be illegal to own weapons passed down in the family from Ottoman period. I don't know of any restrictions on late Ottoman, and I know there is a thriving collectors market for it. It is only the suggestion for this particular spear being earlier than 1453CE which would make me a little bit wary.
