Yikes, I better go back and reread forum rules about prices...So Ebay serves as the pricing standard?

Yes the smoked shaft did not look as old as the blade. And it could very well be a "new upgrade"

I may go back and ask the shop owner if I can photograph it. It realy got my attention.

I have been down here in South Afrcia about three months and seen a number of spears and there is a stark difference between standard curio shop, real and realy old. I have one example of real that is very nice, but it was not represented as older than the 1950's. It is quite heavy. A friend who collects this sort of stuff seems to think it is much older.
