African spear (7)

I think it could be either:

assagai

assegai

'african spear' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for assegai that I've seen before include "spear made from wood" , "A Zulu warrior's spear" , "Zulu fighting spear" , "Wooden spear of southern Africa" , "Ages as I threw the spear" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Independent, the Thinks.com, The Times and The Sun.
