I looked at the spear head pic and zoomed in to 400% to get a good look at the conection between the blade and the socket. It almost looks as if were mig welded together and worked with a hammer. What is the origin of the spear points in the pics are they modern reproductions or antique?

"The sockets also forged from the single piece of bar."

How can it be that there is no hole between the socket and the point on one side? I mean, if I flatten the bar and make the socket from it, it looks like this one:


Am I wrong? I can't really imagine how one could forge from one peace without that hole. I guess if I flatten the socket part it is impassible that there will be no hole. It will be like a spade or somewhat.

"Here are some goals for you to consider" ok, thank you for the tips, I know you speak the truth. I know how does it work: practice, practice, practice... Never mind, I will create this spear all the ways I can imagine, then I will see the result.

Hi!

I would like to create a spearhead like this:


I know how to join the socket and the point together in fire if you make them from two different peaces yet I wonder how this kind of spearhead was made without modern welder. Here it is like the socket goes along the point.

Or is it just a cheat and was made using the same method as this one?


I mean I could shape the head so that it looks like the socket continues but I still wonder how it was made originally.

Thanks and please excuse me for my poor english!
