Nice Protective End Piece for Spear
This is the perfect end piece for a spear of the Hoplite or Viking type. It prevents the ash wood pole from rotting at one end when being used as a pike and also counter-balances the spear for throwing if that is what you want to do with it. It also acts as a blunt force weapon that gives you two ends to fight with. Mainly, though, it is a good idea for preserving the wooden end of the spear from coming into contact with wet surfaces.

Finishes the project nicely.
When paired with the Viking Spear Head and a hardwood staff, the butt cap give the finishing touch to the project. Seals the end of the staff from being splintered or damaged by rough terrain or concrete floors.

Gets the job done with a little extra flare

This is a lightweight butt cap which protects the spear from the ground and the ground from the spear. Does its job, and is easy to attach to the spear.

Functions perfectly as a counterbalance to any spearhead. Makes wielding a spear much easier and more effective. Also helpful in grounding the spear, or as a non lethal striking surface

I used this cap with the hewing spear tip and a 6-foot pole. I was concerned about adding more weight, but it actually feels lighter because the balance is so much improved! I think this brought the center of gravity of the long spear back about a foot. I drilled holes to match those on the hewing tip to secure it. Looks great too.

I bought this to cap the end of my wife spear. Good for protecting the spear's base and gives it a more finished look.

A perfect fit for my staffs! The construction and craftsmanship is great! Has a good heft and functional design. Only thing that I will add is a pin hole at the base. Thank you MRL!

This is a massive hunk of metal! It's well-made but not refined, it has a real period "blacksmith" look about it...well worth the $25. Can't wait to find a quality shaft to put it on!
