Yes it's possible but the club would be still too heavy (1.2 kg) for one hand, almost uncontrolable during action. And it is not because my hands are too weak! Together with a Special Forces Army veteran, we are the only ones in our shooting club, which can shoot more than 70 well aimed shots in one hour with a 1.7 kg pistol in one hand.
If I place my left hand directly in front of the "pommel" there is no good grip for my right hand, the club is too wide for a good grip.
The only way to hold the club safe and to make controled actions is with the left hand on the "pommel" and the right hand directly before the left hand.
I'm also unsure about the material, it is too red for purple heart wood. Much darker than all examples I saw until now.
The whole thing is a mystery for me.
