Recently came across a couple of old pike fishing spears that I am looking to clean up and use. From what I have been able to find, one appears to be an old Randall standard model and the other is a Neely - both are 7-tine spears. The Randall needs the least work - has some rust, but the tines are very, very dull - figured I would wire brush the rust off and take a file to the tines then protect it with some type of coating. The Neely has very little rust, decent sharpens to the tines, plus has a bit of the original green/olive paint left on the head. Issue with it is that somebody added some lead weight to the handle, starting an 1" or so above the head and extending up 5-6" on the handle. They did a pretty nice job with tapering it and keeping it even around the circumference of the handle shaft, though, so I was thinking of leaving the weight on. What do you guys typically do to restore these old spears? I was originally thinking I would use gun barrel bluing or plum brown on them once I had them cleaned up, but now I'm wondering about restoring them as close to original as I can. Any thoughts as to these spears and how to restore them?
