Description
Skillfully made from tempered mild steel, this tapered spear butt spike reflects the traditional craftsmanship of the medieval and early Renaissance periods. It is fitted to the rear end of a spear shaft, acting as both a protective cap and a counterweight. When grounded, it prevents the wooden shaft from cracking or wearing down while improving the overall balance and durability of the weapon.
The tapered socket ensures a tight and secure fit on different shaft sizes, and its smooth polished finish enhances both strength and appearance. True to historical form, it’s a perfect choice for collectors and craftsmen who appreciate authentic, well-made gear.
Each spike is individually hand-forged and heat-tempered, offering excellent strength and long service life—ideal for both display and functional use.
