When I craft a spear there is a part of me that can’t help but feel connected to the “inner caveman” that lurks somewhere deep in each of us. Knowing that this ancient weapon has kept humans alive on the earth for thousands of years gives me a unique respect for its place in our history. But the spear isn't just a relic of the past. I believe it remains an important tool for the modern woodsman, but probably not for the reasons many would think.
