good looking gig, nice job BT, can't wait to see it on an arrow tho, must take a good sized bow to shoot an arrow that big. Years ago I used to make a lot of gigs of the spear type, when the rivers were out so giggers could gig fish from the roads. One fella brought me one to show me that he had gigged, not sure what kind it was, but it was about 2 ft long and smelled fishy. LOL
I didn't forge them tho, used 3/16 SS rod and usually 4 or 5 points, used a hoe handle for the handles.
