My First Spearhead

[David Stifle]

I was sitting around one day, just idely doodling, and I drew a spearhead. It was all hooks and curves, and I put it to one side and forgot about it. Somehow though, it ended up in my shop; I looked down and there it was, so I made it. It's a 15" 1095 chisel ground tang spearhead, about 22" OAL, and heavily engraved. It's intended to suggest one of those spears or knives which are studded with shark or jaguar teeth. I just made it as a lark, but I think it turned out kind of cool. It's heavy enough to make a strong weapon, now to haft it. Anyway, I though I'd post it up, see what you fellas think.

I would not want to be on the receiving end up that thing in combat

The tip looks like it wouldn't enjoy armor very much, but if you hit a soft spot... Man. That guy would be toast.

Looks like something Riddick would use to hunt alien boars.

Thanks guys. I'm going to haft it as a short slashing, stabbing weapon. The spine is 1/4" thick, and the head itself is 1 and 7/8's inches 'wide.
