Big Samoan? sword club.

Sometimes to move on you just have to spend some money. I fell for the beautiful curves. Nice old club but I think signs of metal tools. Real bone braking edges. The lugs on the end tend to suggest Samoa but that is not always a certainty. Most of all I like the pure form and visual strength.

Hi Tim
even if it is not my fight ... or "cup of tea" :p
anyhow, a superb piece, congratulations :D

All I can say aside from its amazing looks is that many Samoan pieces do have a little triangular "spike" at the butt-end with a hole in it (I assume to put a loop/lanyard through) :shrug: Which makes me think that you're right in saying that it is Samoan. Of course, you'd know better than me... That and on antique weapon websites I have seen the very same style of club attributed to Samoa (I won't link to them 'cause I'd get banned, but you have my word ;) )

Only links to commercial websites are discouraged . :)

Relax ....... :)

I LIKE THE FORM OF THIS CLUB VERY PLEASING TO THE EYE AND TO THE HAND NO DOUBT. :) APPEARS IT WAS MADE OUT OF THE GOOD HEAVY HARDWOOD USED FOR REAL CLUBS NOT THE LIGHT FRAGILE WOOD OFTEN USED IN DANCE OR CEREMONIAL CLUBS. DEFINITELY A KEEPER.
