The head may be simply the sharpened end of the shaft itself, or it may be made of a more durable material fastened to the shaft, such as bone, flint, obsidian, copper, bronze, iron, or steel. The most common design for hunting and/or warfare incorporates a metal spearhead shaped like a triangle, diamond, or leaf.
