Spear/Legends

A spear was a weapon used by hunters and warriors in a variety of galactic cultures, especially primitive ones, either as a melee or thrown weapon.

Description
A spear consisted of a shaft, with a point at one end that was usually made of stone or metal. Spears were often constructed in a balanced way that allowed it to be used effectively as a thrown weapon.

Different types of spears included the bevii'ragir, a traditional Mandalorian spear used for hunting, a static pike used by Geonosians, the shoni spear favored by the Kaleesh, stone-bladed spears used by Whiphid warriors, and the gruush, a pointed tool used by the Sauvax species that could also be used as a weapon.

Spears constructed of durable metal alloys were sometimes used by more advanced cultures for sport.

History
Many spears were used by primitive species. The Amanin of the jungle planet Maridun used spears. Amanin spears were sharpened wooden shafts approximately two and half meters in length.

The former clone commando-turned-Mandalorian soldier, Fi Skirata, made use of a traditional Mandalorian hunting spear known as a bevii'ragir. Wad'e Tay'haai, a Mandalorian member of the Cuy'val Dar and an associate of Skirata's clan, owned an ancient spear cast from bronzium.

On Orto Plutonia, the members of the Talz species used spears against the forces of the Galactic Republic, one even causing the death of the Pantoran Chairman, Chi Cho.
