Unknown Spear Tip

[Aragorn243]

This is a first for me. Found this at a flea market this morning. I decided pretty quick I wanted it and for $20, I wasn't going to leave it.

I know very little to nothing about spears. It looks African to me but who knows. It's 22 3/4 inches long and the widest portion of the blade is 1 1/8th inch.

The shaft connection is rolled with a seam on the one side. Everything looks handmade/forged steel

Only thing remotely similar that I have is a Zulu reproduction spear but that's just because it also is a spear, all similarities end there.

Any information appreciated. I did some looking but didn't find anything similar. I'd like to make a shaft for it if possible but would need to know what kind of wood, length, etc.
