The spear is the basic, definitive weapon within its category.
Usage
A little stronger and heavier than the javelin, this two-handed weapon's effectiveness in combat and its chance to hit when thrown are modified by the Spear skill.
While the northern spear, the Kaumolais spear and the ango all have slightly higher Point ratings, none of these seem to be available in anything other than standard quality. Therefore, a masterwork spear is likely to be the 'best' spear in terms of damage potential.
URW Game Encyclopedia description
The official URW in-game encyclopedia (accessed by the F1 key) describes the spear thusly:
The spear has a long wooden shaft and blade specially designed for melee combat.
