If I had to guess, I would say Chinese based on the diamond shaped filing decoration near the ricasso. I could be way off base though. You say it has a forged socket?

Yes, as near as I can tell the socket is forged. No visible forging marks, but it's too thin for a casting, vary nicely finished. |

Yes, this looks Chinese to me as well. Compare it with this similar Chinese polearm.

What's funny is that the pic you posted looks like another of the ads originally posted by the seller from whom I purchased mine, so the similarity isn't surprising!
