Also from the auction this weekend (see my other post) came this nice pair of lance heads or pike heads.
I thinkt that they are 17th century European, but not sure. Unfortunately the langets have not the original length but that being said, i find them quite atractive. |

OK, I'll bite.
They look to me as if they could be the shoe of a lance or pike, rather than the head. And I can't see a reason why they shouldn't be old. Regards Richard |

Do you think so, Ricard ?
... with such (would be) long langets ? |

I'm not sure about that. The decorated thickening in the center looks like something that you would find on a wild bore hunting spear, for preventing entering to deep. But I am not sure either.

This being the head end of a lance, i don't see in its design any such purpose ... if you don't mind
