Odin, the foremost among the Aesir, carries the spear Gungnir. The spear was one of several gifts forged by dwarves to please the gods after Loki’s mischief created troubles. Gungnir is both strong and slender, and never misses the target once thrown. Because of this, it is said that Vikings would throw a spear over their enemies before battle, to call for Odin’s aid. -- source link
