They're not cast.

I always look for signs of handwork and they are there, at least on the straps and spear points. It's just that the blades are so thick. It wouldn't be cost effective to cast the blades and have a smith forge out the blades and straps and fit them together, it wouldn't make any sense!

Anyway, I will keep them around for a while and eventually move them out when something else comes along that I have to own.
