10" Boarding Pike Head- Hooked,Threaded

Description

I tried to look up as much as I could on this piece but I didn't find much. I don't know its exact origins or age. Based on similar pictures I've found online, this could be a piece made by a blacksmith from the Revolutionary War, maybe Naval. I can't say for sure.
I believe this is iron. It is rusted in some areas and the paint is chipped and rubbed off as can be seen in pictures. The base is threaded to be secured on a pike. The tip is twisted (obviously intentional) and there looks like there may be an engraving on the side but I can't make it out due to the paint.
10" from tip to base
3" hook
1/2" at it's widest
11 oz

Because of my schedule I may not get to best offer bids on time as they seem to last only a couple days before expiring. Not receiving a response from me does not necessarily mean I am rejecting it, just that I may not have seen it in time. Please keep that in mind when deciding what day you'll make an offer.

All of my items are sold AS IS. Most of them are vintage, antique and/or handmade. I try to be upfront about the condition of every item but some things are just plain obvious from the pictures. If you have ANY questions about the condition of an item or are wondering whether it will work with what you want to use it for, PLEASE feel free to ask. I will gladly send additional pictures of anything you want to see closer up.
***I'm flexible when it comes to shipping so if you have a preference on how you want me to send an item (I only send through USPS) please let me know before you pay as it's easier to adjust the price to reflect shipping method before payment is made rather than after. Exceptions may be made for "Buy it now" items if I'm not available to respond to your requests in time. Thanks.
