African double pointed Lance head

[katana]

Hi Dirk,
your bident spear is likely Ethiopian / Sudanese and is not for fishing. Without any form of barb it would be fairly useless to spear and 'hold' a fish. My understanding is that African spears with 2 or more heads (that are barbless) tend to be ceremonial or 'badges of status' .... but, many recently made ones tend to be for the tourist market.

Kind Regards David
