Product description
Attach this shaft cap to the back of a shaft. Designed specifically for Greek spears, it protects the shaft against splintering and damage. It also gives the spear better balance. The Greeks used the shaft cap as a spare spearhead when the primary spearhead broke off. You can also use it to fix your spear in the ground.

Prevent rust and corrosion by regularly oiling your weapons. Remove rust easily with black sandpaper. Remove burrs with a whetstone. Always remove burrs before using your battle-ready weapon. Burrs can cause wounds.
Tip: how to adjust the owner's finish and weapons
Luxury (polished) - Polish the steel with metal polishing agent or toothpaste. You can even use this to polish an article. Test on a small surface first!
Handmade (matte) - Place the steel in cola for 40 minutes to 20 hours. Check the matte finish regularly. Even out the finish with black sandpaper.
Antiques (patinated) - Place the steel in a damp environment (preferably outside) for a while and let it rust. Brush away the red rust layer — the corroded top layer remains.
NB. After completing the product yourself, guarantee and return rights lapse. Celtic Webmerchant is not liable for the results of the aforementioned methods.
