Hello and thank you M Eley,
I totally agree,
the iron ''spear'' head made me think of a japanese yari shape
but here it's too large and made of iron
( not that bad, seems forged, not cast )
Maybe a japanese helmet reproduction piece as you say fixed on an european stock ?
Maybe a ceremonial family crest representation / symbolic meeting piece
maybe added with a flag...
( the wooden hilt looks all european to me... )
