A late 18th to early 19th century American boarding pike that shares the overall characteristics of form and construction with those known to be contracted for the US Navy during and following the War of 1812, but which differs in having an unusually long, spike-style blade of 11 - 5/8" with diamond profile. Overall length of the pike, including haft and blade with inset side-straps or langets, is 95 - 5/8", the haft tapering from the head to its butt. CONDITION: This handsome boarding pike retains 80-90% of its original black japanning or tarring, applied to both haft and head; there is perhaps 1/2" of loss to the tip of the blade. JLK
