boar spear
Anybody have any thoughts on this boar spear? It was owned by a keen collector who was active in the mid 20th century, so if it is a fake it hasn't been done in the last 40-50 years or so.
It has had a tasselled fringe below the head, but most of that has now gone. The leather strapping is pinned in place with brass studs. An armourer's mark is visible on the blade in the photo: I've tried to pin down whose stamp this is but with no success.
