Butt Caps

With the discovery of metal, spears became much more effective. In just about all cultures and climes, metal butt caps were used to protect the base of the shaft, and to add balance to the overall weapon. Both are basically European, and can be used for any spear since the beginning of the Iron Age. these are well made of mild steel, and give an improved appearance as well as balancing the spear. These are generic, and do not represent any one specific time or place. Ready to mount. Pole not included.

Viking Short Bladed Spear

Ref: XH2040
The Viking Short Bladed Spear is typical of those of Celtic origin imported into Scandinavia. The short blade, inherently stiffer and more resistant to bending or breaking, was capable of piercing any body armor of the period. The Viking Thrusting Spear was more commonly used than the sword, being much less expensive to produce. The wings or lugs, of Frankish origin, both limited the penetration of the weapon and provided an effective parrying guard. This decorated forged spearhead demonstrates the Viking’s creative mix of art and war, whereby weapons often carried intricate patterns, created using the “Niello” process. This involved using an alloy of several metals (notably silver) mixed with sulfur which was rubbed into an incised pattern and then fired. Where the alloy is rubbed into the engraving it remains black, while the rest of the surface is polished to a bright finish. Our decorating process uses a little more technology but still provides a lustrous, permanent Niello-like effect. Our 005-IB ash poles are ideal for completing the spear. Please note: The blades now come with an antique finish.

KEY FEATURES:
* Historically accurate
* Forged steel
* Fully functional

Viking Throwing Spear

Ref: XH2039
The Nordic warrior frequently carried several light throwing spears into combat. This style displays the narrow, sharply pointed head designed to pierce mail. Several spears might be carried in the shield hand in a charge. These were thrown as the distance closed, leaving the warrior free to use his sword or axe in hand-to-hand fighting. This decorated forged spearhead demonstrates the Viking’s creative mix of art and war, whereby weapons often carried intricate patterns, created using the “Niello” process. This involved using an alloy of several metals (notably silver) mixed with sulfur which was rubbed into an incised pattern and then fired. Where the alloy is rubbed into the engraving it remains black, while the rest of the surface is polished to a bright finish. Our decorating process uses a little more technology but still provides a lustrous, permanent Niello-like effect. A suitable shaft is best found, as with the originals, in the wild. Please note: The blades now come with an antique finish.

* Historically accurate
