Cold Steel Maasai Spear with Secure-Ex Sheath

This fabled implement of the mature Maasai Moran or warrior is one of the most distinctive spears in the world with its long, narrow blade, short wooden handle and heavy counterbalancing butt spike or shoe. The spear is a warrior's most precious possession and never leaves his hand except to rest point up in the earth at his side. Each spear is carefully cold-forged from high carbon steel and combined with a stout ash wood handle and sturdy counterbalancing spike. When fully assembled, it measures 6 ft long and weighs 3 lbs 2 ounces! Delivered unassembled, the razor-sharp Maasai spear consists of three parts: First the blade itself measures 22" long by 2" wide and is forged with a thick reinforcing rib that runs down the center almost to the very tip. Second is the brown American ash shaft with a double taper which fits into twin sockets connecting butt and blade. Third is the heavy solid steel butt spike that is also heat-treated to a hard spring temper. The Maasai spear includes an injection-molded sheath to help protect you from unwanted contact with the razor-sharp edge or point.
