Default Karaja

Just received this nice Karaja sword club. Would split your skull and bones easily. Look good in a size grouping. I would like, no, need a large version.

Very nice one Tim! i would love to have one with the threads on the sides! the club above it is a little bit later but! made of the right wood, and if i remember correctly cannot be exported anymore.

I also found a couple of things a nice things, a Tapirapé war club and a couple of bow and arrows from guyana/surinam. (pic 1 war club) (pic 2 bow and arrow 1) (pic 3 bow and arrow 2) (pic 4 and 5 bow and arrow 3)

I'm loving it. That's a really fine club. There's great stuff from the Amazon/ South America the trouble is finding it.

Found a nice spear, although i'm not sure of the exact origins. I found something similar in the Oldman catalogues, he describes it as Rio Napo. (227 cm)
