Spontoon. The Spontoon was developed in the second half of the 17th century,
more as an officer’s signaling device than a weapon, although it undoubtedly
saw its share of action in hand-to-hand fighting. Our Spontoon is an accurate
replication of the British 1800 pattern, a regulation-issue piece carried
by color sergeants as late as 1830.
The head and tail-piece
