Day 43: How to Make a Primitive Weapon…

The Survival Spear:

Protection, Hunting, Reach — From Just a Stick

When danger walks on two legs or four, or you need to bring down food from a distance, a spear gives you reach and power without needing bullets or blades.

What It Does

  • Lets you hunt small to medium game

  • Defends against predators or threats

  • Gives you reach to strike without getting close

  • Can be used for fishing, digging, or support

How to Make It

1. Find the Right Stick
Look for a sturdy branch, shoulder-height or longer, straight, and not rotten. Hardwood is best.

2. Sharpen the Tip
Use a knife, sharp rock, or even friction on a rough stone to carve a point.

3. Reinforce It (Optional but Smart)
Split the tip into quarters and wedge sharp stones or smaller sticks in the gaps. Tie it tight with cordage, vine, or shoelace to form a 4prong spear great for fishing.

4. Test It
Thrust it into soft ground or a log. If it bends or breaks, remake it. If it sticks and holds, it’s good to go.

Tips

  • Keep it nearby while sleeping outdoors

  • Practice throwing or thrusting — it’s a skill

  • Can double as a walking stick or digging tool

Bottom Line

You don’t need steel to be dangerous. Nature gives you the tools survival gives you the reason.
