Forged Warrior Spear - High Carbon Spring Steel One-Piece Construction, PU Wrapped Handle - Length 42”

Love the spear. It surpassed my expectations. Solid construction for a great price. It reminds me of the african zulu spear the iklwa. Has the same construction only that the blade is shaped like a flat wide leaf. I highly recommend it to any weapons enthusiast.

Very nicely made product. Very much favored over the ZT reaper. A friend of a friend has one and he didn't want to say it but I saw it in his eyes not only payed 590.00 but waited 12 weeks to receive it. 500.00 cheaper , just as good and 9 weeks less wait time. I did use black gorilla tape on the handle just in case the ends came up. Other than keeping the pumpkin population under control until the zombies come and sharpening. Not an issue with it, it’s just perfect ??.

I was very surprised by the quality of the blade they use its a beast. For the price its a great deal but there are some drawbacks: the handle should be longer by twice its size but if they did this they would have to change the handle from solid metal to something lighter. The handle wrap is not great, It is heavy but thats actually good its definitely not too heavy at all. I am happy with it overall.

Extremely well made weapon that is very heavy since it is solid metal all the way. The blade part is 1065 steel that was heat treated to act like spring steel allowing it to be very flexible and durable. Otherwise the main handle is solid heavy metal that could do harm just from using the handle and not the blade. Would defiantly block any sword strike with ease. Overall a great 2 hand weapon that is sharp, heavy, durable and able to be used to attack with any part of the weapon and defiantly block anything with ease. Roughly 8-10 pounds in weight and a good product for the price!

?? this is a must have to reach out and touch faces when need be remember this isn't a spear meant for throwing and the blade is meant to bend but so strong it will retake shape if you work it. If your putting together survival gear or stealth gear or both this is a must have I put all weapons through Extreme tests this past the test for this weapon the wraps need replaced I sowed leather to the handle top bottom and middle.If you see Nioh on a review trust it I make sure that a weapon is ready for war of it can't take it I'll let you know. BudK is a great sit that's done professional Business thus far. I will keep using Budk if something don't live up to what it says they will refund your money. Thanks for reading and thank you BudK for the epic gear

This sword is good value. It's a shorter blade than traditional styled swords and a longer handle but not enough to consider a spear. The handle was square and composed of leaf springs laid on the side of the tang. This made it on the heavy side for me, so I ground some edge off each corner to reduce weight a bit and make more of an octagon grip. I rewrapped with the original material and then had a leather guy at my local swap meet sew a snap in on the sheath you secure it. I'm fairly stoked with the results. It's solid, holds up to wood and sparring, with no ill marks. She's still pretty sharp, and I've put her through some stuff. Not bad at all!

The heat treatment seems to be just as good as the other Forged Warrior blades i have. I am really liking this company. One draw back is that the weapon is UNECESSARILY heavy. It is just long enough to be a two handed weapon and the weight seems to encourage it. Two pieces of steel sandwich the tang just as wood or micarta do for swords and knives. Replacing these would give you less weight and added material to work with if you have a shop. In materials alone, a great value. Zero complaints about the wrap or the blade itself. As the previous reviewer stated, the sheath for the blade cannot be secured but it is well built. I prefer the wrap on this one and the Forged Warrior Jungle long knife over the one on the 2 machetes with suade wrap

The Zombie Tools Reaper is 6 inches longer and 12 ounces heavier. However, the Reaper runs $584. Do the math. This is a much better deal for a similar style weapon. It is a two handed weapon. It is sharp. One drawback is the wrapping. Mine came with one end loose. The epoxy or glue was not sticky enough. I fixed it with duct tape. In fact, I put duct tape at both ends just in case. The sheath is okay but could be better. There is no snap or anything to keep it on. I do recommend this over Zombie Tools as you are getting good steel at a better price.
