Thanks in advance.

Colin, I have seen a couple of spear/lance heads similar to yours but I have not found any definite origin. Yours is the first I have seen that is complete, it looks Indian to me, the cane shaft and the end spike are common elements on Indian spears that I have seen, hopefully someone here knows about this particular type.
