Hi, I was just thinking that the leather looks quite `bright`on the sides. Should it be a little more darker/patinated where the bead work ends if been an antique piece? I myself have made these clubs a couple and with a stone grinder it takes two hours to make the head, if not using natural stone. Willow for the handle and wet raw hide wrapped around the handle and the head, sewn together and when dried it will hold the head firmly on place. Smoked above fire and you have an autenthic looking skull crasher. I can send some pictures if anyone interested.
Regards, Timo
ps. not saying this would be a recent one.
