Long Description

A length of perfectly straight ash has been expertly hewn and polished to form the handle of this spear. Much more elegant than other types of pilum, this particular example is specifically designed for melee combat rather than for being thrown. Its head is forged from the finest steel into a rather unusual shape. The central razor-sharp blade looks fairly normal, but there are also a number of nasty-looking spikes fanning out from its base. They look capable of permanently and irrevocably ruining the day of anything you might choose to hit with them.

Appraises As

The star-headed pilum is about four feet long and a couple of inches wide. It is made of steel and could be used as a weapon of type polearm.
