The sea, in its tedium, ages slowly. Only yesterday steam engines were invented and only the day before that Vikings owned the northern seas. Spears were a long-distance favorite among them and so the spear heads themselves are vastly diverse. The Corsair Flying Barbed Spear Head is a Damascus Steel spear head with two barbs at the base of the blade. This hand forged spear is constructed from 1095/15N20 steels that have been heated and folded into each other over and over approximately 280-350 times to create this gorgeous Damascus pattern. This full-size spearhead features an overall length of 13.13-inches and a 7.63-inch double-edged blade with a standard sharpening. The Corsair Flying Barbed Spear Head is the perfect addition to any Viking costume or Viking collection. The 4.5-inch shaft has a .8-inch opening to mount your spear head to any wooden handle of your choosing. A pre-drilled hole in the shaft helps assist with mounting the spear head to the handle. This spear head comes well oiled – and it is recommended to polish with a mineral oil from time to time to prevent rusting or corrosion.
*Please note: A mounting shaft is NOT INCLUDED, but can be purchased at most any local hardware store.
