THIS DOUBLE END CAN SERVE THE FUNCTION OF BEING ABLE TO USE BOTH HANDS SORT OF LIKE A STAFF THIS MAKES BOTH ENDS FUNCTIONAL FOR CLOSE UP FIGHTING. THE STRIKES WOULD BE MOSTLY LIKE SPEARING SOMEONE WITH THE POINTED ENDS BUT YOU COULD SPIN AND BLOCK AND MAKE SHORT CLUB STRIKES AS WELL.
USING IT ONE HANDED WOULD ADD TO ITS STRIKING FORCE AS A CLUB AND THE KNOB AT THE END WOULD HELP KEEP THE CLUB IF THE ENEMY GOT HOLD OF THE OTHER END. THIS KIND OF CLUB IS SMALL LIGHT AND FAST NOT A LARGE HEAVY TWO HANDED BONE CRUSHER BUT IS STILL ABLE TO CRACK SKULLS AND BREAK BONES.
ONE HANDED CLUB USE FREES UP THE OTHER HAND IT MAKES ONE WONDER IF THE FREE HAND WAS USED TO GRAB OR HIT THE ENEMY OR IF OTHER WEAPONS WERE SOMETIMES USED. SOME OF THE SMALLER WOODEN DIAMOND SHAPED FORMS WOULD WORK WELL FOR A TWO WEAPON SYSTEM.
FOR SOME REASON IN MUCH OF ISLAND WARFARE SHIELDS SEEM TO HAVE BEEN MISSING. PERHAPS SOME GROUPS CONSIDERED IT UNMANLY OR COWARDLY TO HIDE BEHIND SOMETHING AND RELIED ON AGILITY.? NICE CLUB WITH TWO FUNCTIONAL ENDS I HAVE SOME OF SIMULAR FORM BUT WITH FANCY PIERCED CARVING ON THE BUTT RENDERING THEM LESS FUNCTIONAL FOR WAR.
