Hi Colin,

Thank you for your reply on what is certainly proving a difficult task

I too was of the impression the simple geometric decorations were possibly of Islamic origin. In any case I appreciate your considerable knowledge on these weapons and will certainly make reference to these suggestions during my research. Are you aware of any particular timeframe in history that this spear design or type was popular? Thank you.

Kind regards,

Chris
