NOTICE HOW THE BUTT OF THE SPEAR FLARES OUT AND GETS BIGGER SOME HAVE A SORT OF A KNOB ON THE END. THIS IS TO FACILITATE STABING AND KEEPING FROM LOSING YOUR SPEAR AND MAKES IT EASIER TO PULL IT BACK FOR ANOTHER STAB OR THE NEXT ENEMY. THE LARGER HEAD WOULD PROBABLY PLACE IT AT THE TIME OF SHAKA OR AFTER THAT AS HE IS GIVEN CREDIT FOR INTRODUCING THE STABBING SPEARS WITH A BIGGER BLADE. I DIDN'T SEE THE END OF THE OTHER SPEAR SO I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS A THROWING OR STABBING SPEAR WITH THE EARLIER SMALL SIZE BLADE. THE STABBERS ARE USUALLY AROUND 4 FOOT LONG.
