A Composite Spear and a Detached Spear Blade - A composite spear, featuring a substantial, elongated leaf-shaped blade crafted from iron or steel, consistent with examples identified as Maasai lion spears. The blade is securely attached to a long, slender wooden shaft via a tarnished metal ferrule, likely brass or bronze, which exhibits a faint, indistinct circular emblem. The wooden shaft shows signs of age-related wear, appearing dry and weathered, and tapers subtly at its base. Accompanying the spear is a secondary, detached metal blade of identical form and material, displaying a tang for insertion.
