    The Cold Steel Winged Spear has a large spearhead of sharpened 1055 high carbon steel. The edge is moderately sharp and the steel has been blackened. The shaft is of stained and varnished ash. The spear comes disassembled; a pair of wood screws are provided to secure the spear head to the shaft.

    The short lugs of a winged spear are often thought to prevent over-penetration, but this may be a secondary purpose for the lugs. Its likely that they could have been used to dash aside opposing spears and to hook and pull the shield of an opponent. These two uses would be of good use in shield-wall formations common in the early medieval period where a fellow warrior could exploit such an opening. These winged spears are often associated with the Frankish warriors of Charlemagne and the Vikings.

    Please Note: Our photos show an approximation of the completed weapon – we did not screw the head to the pole, this is why the screws are not present in the photos. Also poles may have slight bends or warps, however, we inspect them to try and pick the best ones available.
