Very cool. Any imformation on the weight? Nice thing to have. I can't help noticing the snake designs similarity to the snake carving on some of the Trobriand clubs. Am I right to believe that the Formosa aborigenal people are related to polynesian/melanesian/micronesian people? The black and red paint work peaked my interest so I have added a red and black Amazonian club. Quite new not like your lucky find. Very cool

PS. Also the Solomon Island club of the same form. Which is a light weight dance wand more than a club but the same shape, slightly interesting?
