Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. A Spontoon (or half-pike) is a type of European lance that came into being alongside the pike. The spontoon was in wide use by the mid 17th century, and it continued to be used until the mid to late 19th century. Unlike the pike, which was an extremely long weapon (typically 14 or 15 feet), the spontoon measured only 6 or 7 feet in overall length. Generally, this weapon featured a more elaborate head than the typical pike. The head of a spontoon often had a pair of smaller blades on each side, giving the weapon the look of a military fork, or a trident. Italians might have been the first to use the spontoon, and in its early days, the weapon was used for combat, before it became more of a symbolic item.
