Here's another Budiak Spearhead

And another ...

I'm always amazed at how short the tangs on these blades are

Rick, is that a twisted core spearhead? what a beauty

Hi Panday , I guess it is ; the veins of metal stand up a little ; you can feel them when you run your fingertip over the panel .
Best thing is that it's pretty much complete with ferrule shaft and tailpiece .

The head's a tad wiggly but I figure it's probably an old one .
