Hi,
I have one of these, got it with other bits and pieces in a sale. It is 12 1/2 inches long and 11.1 ozs. As an occasional fresh and sea water fisherman I can well imagine it would do the job of a fisherman's priest very well but I get the feeling that these are more of a souvenir than anything else. They all seem to have the same basic adornment i.e. shamrocks, Irish Celtic harp motifs and crosshatching. They are nicely produced items and I wouldn't like to be on the receiving end of one but I am not convinced that they are anything other than a well crafted item for those who travel.
Regards,
Norman
