Level 2 stone axes are either Miner69er or Mother Lode, I think. Some of the perks aren't very clear about what they have an effect on.

Your problem is probably that you're just Perception level 1, so until you put points into the Perception attribute you won't be able to put more points into the Spear skill.

On the right of each blocked skill there's a Lock icon: hover your mouse over it and you'll see what's needed to unlock it.

To craft better Tools (axes, shovels and picks) you need Miner 69'er, but to raise that skill you also need to invest into the Strength attribute.

What Jost said.

But as a new player, I'll just share a fairly widespread opinion that spears are probably the weakest melee weapon in the game... Not useless (especially as an early game ranged weapon) just that other weapon types are more effective while also being easier to master without risk of losing your weapon due to a bad throw.

But by all means stick with it if it's working for you!
