{{Type|''Long socket with a long narrow leaf shaped blade.''<br>Similar to the type C but with a narrower blade and longer socket. Petersen discuss types D1 and D2 together and dates them to the C10th and in Norway they are found with Swords or types: S, Q, Special 20 and 1 with a type H. Also with Axe types: I-K and shields of [[:File:R565.jpg|R565]].<br>}}

{{Type|''Short socket with a subtle transition into a long leaf shaped blade.''<br>Petersen describes the blades of this type as having 'an almost regular width' along its length and it being 'not especially pointed'. In Norway found with Swords or types: C, D, E and H. Axes of types: A, D and 1 of C. Shield boss type: [[:File:R564.jpg|R564]]<br>}} 

{{Type|''A short, thick socket that usually continues partly into the blade. The blade is quite flat.''<br>

Ornamented versions of this type are mainly found in Sweden and the Baltic [Petersen PETERSEN 1919]. <br>}}

{{Type|''Similar to type H but with wings (lugs).''<br> Petersen discuss types D1 and D2 together and dates them to the C10th and in Norway they are found with Swords or types: S, Q, Special 20 and 1 with a type H. Also with Axe types: I-K and shields of [[:File:R565.jpg|R565]].<br>}}

{{Type|''long and thin socket ornamented with encircling ridges and depressions. The blade is widest as it joins the socket.''<br>

Type F spearheads generally have a length of 30-60cm with most being between 50-60cm. Petersen classes this a very numerous type in Norway and dates it from the middle C9th.[PETERSEN 1919]. Possibly a precursor to type I spears.}}
