In "Lord of the Flies" by William Golding, the sharpened stick that Jack holds is described as about five feet long. It is used as a weapon by Jack and his hunters against Ralph and Piggy.
Well, they use the first sharpened stick to put the pig's head on. They don't actually do anything with the second stick, but they planned to kill Ralph and stick him on there, just like the Lord of the Flies. Luckily for him, the naval officer came and the suspenseful chase through the woods is ended.

When Samneric mention that Roger sharpened a stick at both ends in "Lord of the Flies," it signifies the increasingly violent and dangerous nature of Roger. Sharpening a stick at both ends suggests a malicious intent to harm others, foreshadowing the savagery that will eventually consume the boys on the island. It also symbolizes the loss of civilization and the descent into barbarism.
Roger prepares a sharpened stick at both ends in Chapter 11 of William Golding's novel "Lord of the Flies." He does this to hunt and kill Ralph, reflecting his descent into savagery and cruelty on the island.
A goalie which holds his blocker and hockey stick on the left side and his glove (trapper) on the right side is known as a Full Right goalie. The stick that the goalies hold in the left hand is a full right goalie stick.
Jack declares that the pig's head will be a sacrifice to the Beast, so he impales it on a stick (sharpened at both ends). The head later becomes the Lord of the Flies.
Technology can be as simple as a sharpened stick.
They warn Ralph that Jack plans to hunt him the next day and that Roger has "sharpened a stick at both ends."
Roger and Jack likely intended to use the sharpened stick as a weapon. Its design as a spear with both ends sharpened suggests they intended to hunt or harm someone or something. This weapon could have been used for hunting animals or as a tool to establish power or control over others.
The lord of the flies originally hung on a stick sharpened at both ends. One end in the earth and the other supporting the pig head. Roger intends to do this same thing to Ralph if they kill him, but replacing the pigs head with Ralphs. They dont kill Ralph :)
Roger has prepared a stick sharpened at both ends for Ralph. This means that he has the same end in mind for Ralph as the sow (female pig). The sow was killed rather brutally killed prior to having her decapitated head mounted on a stick sharpened at both ends as an offering to "the Beast." This is a thinly vailed threat on Roger's part.
Ralph learns from Samneric that Jack plans to have his tribe hunt him the next day and that Roger has sharpened a stick at both ends.
