Description :

Handmade Primitive/Traditional Fish Spear Or Leister

It features a wooden handle with two barbed prongs, likely made of bone, attached at the end and secured with wrapping, possibly sinew or cord.

This type of spear, also known as a "kakivak" in some cultures, is used for spearfishing, particularly for catching fish at short range in shallow waters. 

This appears to be a handmade reproduction in the primitive or traditional style.

Makes a beautiful wall hanger!
