"Uchine is a type of teyari (hand spear) sometimes called a Tetsukiyari, which with a wooden sheath was carried at the waist/back. Here is another one with a quiver and a rope. You see a rope attached to a hole in the end of the shaft on some, supposedly used for retrieving it once it was thrown. Some uchine do not have a nock while some do, not much is known about these, its possible the the nock was just symbolic or it could be that these were able to be shot with some type of bow as well as being thrown, there is just not enough information on them to know for sure. could this be rather a Japanese crossbow bolt? Still I can't keep my eyes off the nocks, which are also mentioned, but I haven't seen an explanation on it s far. Unless I'm missing something, as with an albeit quick google search, I even keep seeing it identified as a dart. I look at the end of it and notice what looks like what seems to be a nock. Very interesting thread, I've always wondered if javelins could be carried in a quiver.īut I look at that Japanese dart, and though I like the thought of such a thing.
