In 2013 Robert posted a spear Identical to mine. The Auction Company advertised them as African, but I doubt it.
If I had been at a European Militaria Show, they probably would have called them "European Peasant Halbreds," or at an American Civil War Show, " Confederate Pikes."
I think Robert's thread proved them to be Southeast Asian and probably Vietnamese.
Note; if anyone could prove them to be Confederate, I would be eternally grateful, lol.
