Overview
Blunt-Tipped Long Spearhead - Deepeeka
This long-bladed spear has a thick and blunted spearhead designed for sport and reenactment combat as well as stage combat. It is forged from C60 high carbon steel and is ready to be mounted onto your own wooden haft. At the base of the socket are two pre-drilled holes which will accommodate your own screws to secure the spearhead to a tapered haft. The opening of the socket is approximately 1 ? (28 mm) in diameter and it is recommended that you taper a spear pole end to get a close fit to match your individual spearhead.
Please Note: screws and mounting hardware are not included.

Often paired together
This is a very solid spearhead for stage combat and reenactment, and is well made and very affordable! I purchased this item along with an ash wood shaft to make a spear for my 10th-century anglo-scandinavian viking impression, and this spearhead works very well as a compromise for crafting an accurate viking-age spear, while also being safe for reenactment combat. It looks very imposing when mounted on a 7 foot spear shaft, and I am very happy with my purchase.
To add to the specifications in the description, the depth of the socket is 4 inches (10.16 cm), and the width of the blade at its widest is 1.5 inches (3.81cm). It is relatively easy to fit the head onto the shaft using a pencil, wood chisels and small rubber mallet, a draw blade, clamps, and intermediate wood working skills. I drilled a hole and used an old carpentry nail from my toolbox to secure the head to the shaft. Prior to installation, I sanded off any finish on nail head in order to have a uniform steel look, and sawed off the end of the nail. If needed, I could remove the nail pretty easily with some tools, but it is very secure.
A note to those less familiar with weapon maintenance: This spearhead will be shipped in a preservative jelly to prevent rusting, which you will need to clean off in order to handle. You can use WD-40 for this, then after wipe off the WD-40 with a paper towel and apply a CLP or 3-in-1 oil with a soft cloth to prevent oxidation. I personally use an eyeglass cloth and a single drop of oil for this. You will need to wipe off and reapply oil each time you handle the spearhead, or else your finger oil will leave dark marks on the blade!
