you don't have to edit the model with Warcraft 3 Model Editor. Object Editor and Import Manager from World Editor is enough. In case you don't know how:

First of all, import your desired model (Wooden Spear) with import manager. Right click on import manager and i think you'll find your own way from there.
Erase the war3mapImported\YourModelName.mdx (usually this is not needed but it's up to you)
Save the map

Create a new ability in Object Editor based on Item Damage Bonus
Set the attack bonus to 0, so it won't give your hero any bonus
Change Art - Target to your wooden spear
Change Art - Target Attachment Point 1 to hand, left
