Unusual spear for ID.
 

Overall length: 66"
blade is 20" x 3.5"
Ferrule: 5"
Shaft is about 1 3/8" thick at widest point

The scabbard has an Indonesian look. Yet I have not seen a spear like this of Indonesian heritage. The brass or bronze bands holding the scabbard together, as well as the scabbard itself are more crudely made than the spear. Almost have a "Chinese" feel as though it was made for the spear by someone of less skill. Possibly a tourist scabbard???

I can't find a picture of the spear head, with a possible exception of a Batak head that looks somewhat similar, but not exactly.

Massive, heavy and stout piece. Comes from an old collection that had a few good pieces, but more wall hangers. This is the only weapon he had.

Appreciate any ideas or comments to help better understand what this is?

Its very fine Bill!
My first thought was Chinese fighting spear.

Hi Bill,

I have seen Sulu spears with brass ferrules that are decorated with flower designs (like Chinese). I can only guess that these spears were inspired through the close trade between China and the Sulu region in the past. I will not discount the possibility that your spear is Sulu (i.e Philippines AND Indonesia)

This spear does seem to show an Indonesian style of Metuk . :shrug:
Malay ?
