Chinese Hook Spear

Equipped with a folded steel blade, which is a hammer-welded mixture of 1095 & 1060 high carbon steel, manganese spring steel, 1045 soft steel and many more smaller portions of other steels. This mixture is then folded multiple times to remove impurities, creating many hundreds of individual steel layers, finally producing arguably the best blade-making steel available.

The process and technique is renowned for smithing the finest combat blades, assuredly forming a very lethal foundational core to this Chinese halberd weapon. 

Primarily purposed for open-field war, this fighting spear halberd was often used within tight ranks, and was very effective for countering mounted cavalry. Both the primary combat spear head, and the smaller hooked-sickle tip have excellent armor penetration capability. 

Completed with a strong two-piece tube-steel handle and solid brass fittings, this battle spear is a true and superb weapon of war.
