Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!
Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

A professor of mine had one similar. Razor sharp long metal tip. Smooth, very straight hardwood length. Lightly decorated. It was a real spear that likely had been used at one point for hunting, or war. There was a slightly stained area where it was held a lot.
The feel in you had was much like picking up a real sword, or whatevs. …power. Made with love (or maybe hunger? Or hate?).
Always wanted one.
