Quick Overview
Designed to be rammed, not thrown, the trick to using a lance was to let go at the right moment so as to get maximum force without toppling horse and rider.
Description
The leather fringe decorating a lance calls upon the power of the wind to drive the lance to its mark.

This lance features a fringe of 24 strands, a multiple of four, thus calling upon the four directions for guidance to the right spot.

The blade, which is 12 inches in length, is made of hand-forged iron.
