You do realize a spear is a mid-range weapon,right? If anybody actually gets in too close you have to do a series of pushing and moving back just to give them that nice pointy end.

There are many different kinds of spears. The top two I'm thinking of are pikes for not turning to a crappy pole when someone gets within 4 feet of you, and the pila for breaking in the guy and keeping him from moving around so much(thrown weapon.)
