It doesn't look like it's suitable as a bludgeoning weapon due to the placement of the handle. The tip of the weapon seems more like the part where you would strike with. Not all lances or lance like weapons have sharpened points, but it can have a hard impact if it hits. Oobleck is fast enough to strike with a lance like weapon, isn't he?
