The ways that has been listed above, shows that the spear cannot be mastered only with strength, but also skill. All these points show the difference between spears and swords and katana, making the spear superior to the rest.

All the weapons that have been mentioned have fought under their countries as great tools, and one of them, the spear stood out from them because of its superior features and uses such as creating a spear wall, their deadly long range, and the amount of skills required to use it. Although in many other countries, there might be other weapons (Such as claymores) that can be matched with the spear but in terms of traditional Asia, the spear is the superior weapon of the three dominant weapons of the continent: Spears, Swords, and Katana.
