how many uses you get out of each before the tips break ?

@36drifterboy Not many. It depends on the strength and diameter of the bamboo, as well as how much it is dried ahead of time.

Nice spear. But the wedges wont pass through the fish. Fix this by taking a thicker piece of bamboo , make 8 prongs and slide a wide sharpened stick through the middle allowing it to pass through.
