The Sarissa is a long spear used by ancient Macedonian phalanxes, measuring approximately 4 to 6 meters in length. It features a slender, polished wooden shaft with a sharp, leaf-shaped iron spearhead at one end and a bronze butt-spike at the other for balance. The shaft is smooth with minimal decoration, focusing on functionality, while the spearhead exhibits a slightly weathered texture, indicating use in battle.
