FAQs

What is the primary use of this Gladiator Extendable Spear?

This spear is designed as a fancy dress accessory or prop for costumes, primarily for historical or fantasy themes. It is not a toy or a functional weapon.

How long is the spear when fully extended?

The spear is 150cm (approximately 59 inches or 4.9 feet) in length when fully extended.

Does the spear come assembled?

No, the spear typically comes in multiple pieces that require simple assembly. Instructions should be included with the product.

Is this product safe for children?

While tested to safety standards, its length and design make it more suitable as an accessory for adults. Adult supervision is recommended if used by older children.

What does 'extendable' mean in this context?

It means the spear can be made longer or shorter, likely by sliding sections together or apart, allowing for adjustable length.

How should I clean the spear?

Wipe it clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or submerging it in water.

What does it mean that it comes in a pack of 4 pieces?

It means you will receive four individual Gladiator Extendable Spears in the package.

Troubleshooting

Spear sections do not connect securely.

Ensure you are aligning the connecting ends correctly and twisting firmly. Check for any debris in the connection points that might be preventing a tight fit.

Extension mechanism is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently try to work the mechanism back and forth. If it persists, a small amount of dry lubricant (like graphite powder) applied to the sliding parts might help, but use sparingly.
