Hi Maurice,

Interesting viewpoint on the origin of this spear. Now you mention it...the profile of the steel blade is quite like those to be often found lashed to the tip of Dayak blowpipes.

Do you have any references/illustrations you can post ?

Best regards
Colin

But unfortunately I didn't!

But I vote for Borneo!
Not quite dayak, but in some area of Borneo where also Malay or Indonesian people or other outlandish people were wandering around...

Kind Regards,
Maurice
