December 2014 LoAR - eel fork:

T-varukh_device_bw_iLoI.jpg

  • Varukh syn Iarygin. Device. Per bend sinister argent and vert, four eel-forks conjoined in cross by their bases counterchanged.

This is the defining instance of an eel-spear or eel-fork in Society heraldry; Parker defines it as a "kind of fork used in taking eels" and gives an example of it in the arms of the Company of Soapmakers. The ordinary position of the charge is with the points downwards." http://heraldry.sca.org/loar/2014/12/14-12lar.html#217
