picked this one up on ebay today, looks more hand carved than most 'vintage' ones, patina looks older, square cut lanyard hole, grunge in the recesses, lack of added fancy carving. hopefully an older one. fibre lanyard looks new. bit larger than my others. 16 in. x 5 in. x 1 in. approx. - matai wood.

any comments appreciated. thanks in advance....
