Lance, javelin (5)
I believe the answer is:
spear
I believe this clue is a double definition.
'lance' is the first definition.
(I know that lance can be written as spear)
'javelin' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for spear that I've seen before include "Sharp-tipped weapon" , "Asparagus shoot" , "Portion of asparagus" , "Simple weapon" , "Long pointed weapon" .)
