The bane spear is a durable shortspear, the butt end of which is set with long, solid, mace flanges that resembles an arrow's fletching, giving the bane spear an appearance remarkably like that of a huge arrow. A bane spear is a double weapon, and can be used to stab like a spear, and bludgeon with the mace flanges. You can fight with it as if fighting with two weapons, but if you do so, you incur all of the normal attack penalties associated with fighting with two weapons: a one-handed weapon and a light weapon. (See "Attacking with Two Weapons", page 128 of the Players Handbook). A creature using a double weapon in one hand, such as an ogre using a bane spear, can't use it as a double weapon. A bane spear may also be effectively thrown, the mace flanges/fletching acting to stabilize and spin the spear when thrown.
