NB: On the second and third pictures, the spear head is directly set on the walking sword blade and the scabbard for comparison,
not 10cm upper ...

like a good kattar push dagger...
I hope my last pictures will help,

For the tooth picker'' idea,
the ''blade is 2-3'' time thicker than classic sword walking sticks , really heavy and thicker than most of spears ends I have seen so I think it's will be ok !

I agree with the limit of boar hunting: without a fork shape - spikes...
the animal can't be stopped when we stab him and he can hurts you heavily.
( maybe just made for give ''the coup de grāce '' as they do with hunting swords...)

So it can be an old stabbing weapon , maybe an armor breaker
set on a later smaller stick,
the ''scabbard'' wood is made of lighter wood than the ''hilt'' and seems to be older ( the sigil-mark is matching on both side but it can be added later... ?)
