Aboriginal Nulla-nulla

[Tim Simmons]

These are normally above my budget but I just got lucky with this one. Got it for less than a basic knobkerrie. 32 inches long, beautiful glossy glass like patina. I show it next to South Sudan club. The African club is far to heavy to use with one hand, a heavy assault weapon. The Nulla-nulla is more flexable in that it can be used with one hand it is also effective as a missile. So pleased the forum is back.

Neat comparison. Thanks Tim. One question: How much of the weight difference is wood density, and how much is the shape of the clubs?

African 1.450 kg Aussie 800g The African club is very dense wood. The Aussie one is hard wood but nowhere near as dense. One could move it effectively with one hand and have a shield/parrying stick in the other. To do that with the African club you would have to be a weightlifter or freaky muscle man.
