Very cool, I have never seen the paddle-like one

I have a feeling that modern reproductions made for tourists are made of a different wood, less dense (maybe younger trees), and/or just not as thick because they all seem to be fast swingers... Samoan clubs made in th modern-day for tourists seem to be VERY heavy, almost over-built...

From " Fijian Artefacts, Rod Ewins" The lugs for the cord on my example is broken, why you do not see it in my post. Just love that little patch of decoration.
