Nice example Graeme! Can I ask the size/weight please?

Edit: I just found a beyond doubt original example on the net which is dated and militarily marked. 21" long. Interestingly it has the same strange 'hole' on the end in the centre from a lathe bit. I wonder if it would have had three if it were not turned to more of a 'cone'?:

And mine, 21.75" long, for comparison:

Here are 4 more all 18" lead filled heads dont know the weight but it would smart a bit .

Here are 4 more all 18" lead filled heads dont know the weight but it would smart a bit .They should be here now.

Hi Graeme,

The reason I didn't initially consider trench club is the lack of studs etc on mine.
Are you familiar with other plain examples?
Mine does have the addition of having extra weight in its design to compensate for the lack of lead or studs.

Oak seems common too.

What are your thoughts?

Hi Graeme,

Hmmm, still seems like a good candidate though.

Are the pictures all yours?
Hell of a collection if so!

Thanks
