I figured I would post some of the spears I have been working on lately. Made these guys up from 5160, still need HT and grinding.
I am a hobby maker and only make things for myself.
I've got a lust for life

looking good! What time periods are you aiming at?
"this [fight] looks curious, almost like a game. See, they are looking around them before they fall, to find a dry spot to fall on, or they are falling on their shields. Can you see blood on their cloths and weapons? No. This must be trickery."

Are you planning on giving them a smoother finish or leaving them in a direct from the forge state ? Not a criticism, just curious. 
Interesting to see how you form the sockets.
( Edited: Oh, just noticed that you do mention that they still have to be heat treated and finished/ground.  )
You can easily give up your freedom. You have to fight hard to get it back!
