Club Questions

I just picked these three club like objects at an estate sale. The only provenance is that ‘Uncle Bob’ traveled in the South Pacific and brought home souvenirs. All three are good solid hardwood with a functional feel to the grips, weight and balance. Any help in possible identification and does it look real or tourist, would be greatly appreciated.

These are from the Solomon Islands and rather recent pieces for and as handicrafts trade.
