DD your're a genius
I bought 2 spears from the son of a soldier stationed in and around S.A during WW2. I was assured they were given to his father by a Zulu he befriended. (It was a parting gift).
The problem was the spears were SOCKETTED and not usually attributed to the Zulu. I assumed that this guy was mistaken, and as they were heavy, forged spears I kept them.
Now everything makes sense........it looks like I have 2 Askara type spears
I will post pics later............got to go to a barbeque..at least while the sun is shining
