Description
North America, United States, Eastern Seaboard, ca. 18th century CE. A rare hand-forged iron pike head with a folded shaft and tapered blade, created and used during the Revolutionary War era. Perforation through shaft for attachment. Pikes were little used in infantry formations beyond 1700, however, pikes such as these were used during the Revolutionary War until enough bayonets could be procured for general use by the Continental Army and attached militia units making this quite a rare piece. Wonderfully aged deep brown patina! Size: 13" (33 cm).
