I wasn't sure what to expect but you made some awesome points I didn't expect. Only thing I'd do differently is I'd make the chamfer on the inside of the spear "eye" bigger, that transition really is the major weak point. For my spear I just extended that angle all the way up the wood, the metal wasn't flush but I knew it would be stronger.

@@natalielambert4378 I drilled a hole across the socket of the spear head, in one side and out the other, then seated it on the shaft. Mark the location of the hole. Note I am not drilling through both pieces at once, I just drilled through the socket first. Then I drilled the shaft hole 1/32 of an inch farther down the shaft from where it was marked. This means the two holes do not quite line up. When I drove the pin through (a 2" common nail) it forced the head on even tighter. The end of the nail is cut off a little proud and peened over to rivet the head in place.

The blades are deficient in safety. I mean, there should be a screw hole at the socket for nailimg a safety screw. There's a lesson here for myself. Years before, my teen son was going to take part in a team spear performance in a church before a bit crowd. Unluckily, I drove him late as I didn't really check the map. So, we just hold of the spear at back of the audience and watch. My son was disappointed at me after return to our condo underground parkakade. There in venting his displeasure, he waved the spear and performed the routine drill vehemently. Suddenly, shriek! the spear head flew away to the concrete roof (thank God, not to other cars) and then fell down. We're both dumbfounded! Had we been right on time and the spear head would have flown to some audience and hurt or killed someone! Thank God we were late and didn't go into the team! Took the spear home, I found there's a safety screw hole there at the socket and I didn't put a nail in.

The actual law for carrying a blade makes the way you carried it illegal. You are not allowed to hide a blade. The same goes with a firearm. Paradoxically, when you take your firearms safety course. The teacher will tell you to cover your firearm up until you get to the location you want to use it so people don't go calling the cops for no good reason other then that they saw a man with a firearm in his car. Same thing applies with a blade sadly.

Ahh yes, I recognize that Windlass hewing spear head! That little ruler trick to approximate the internal taper of the socket is pretty crafty! Of the three that I've hafted, none match the external diameter of the socket. I basically just tapered the haft with a knife, would do a test fit, then check the dark spots the socket leaves on the wood at the high spots & repeat. Is it mechanically weaker than having a rim that sits flush with the bottom of the socket? Maybe. Am I going to be needing to spear anything anytime soon? Maybe not.
