Antique Blacksmith Forged Iron Fishing Trident, Primitive Barbed Spear

Rare, antique, 8-pronged, iron fishing trident in very good condition. Dating to the early 19th Century, it was forged by a blacksmith and has barbs on the ends to help ensure a good catch! It measures 10 1/4" high by 9 inches long; the tines are 4 1/2 inches long. It weighs almost 2 pounds. This hand-crafted, early tool is extremely rugged and in very well-preserved condition. Add a wooden handle for added charm. Either way, it makes a fabulous wall decoration.
