No problem Tim. Glad that it helped. I'm not surprised you hadn't found more information on your club... the South American traditional native weaponry is sort of a very obscure corner of the ethnographic arms collecting / war history world. Warclubs from South America don't seem to have the popularity/price-tags that North American clubs do... but I like them both.
The weaponry of Native America have always fascinated me. To some they just see sticks and stones. To others they see the convergent evolution of swords, the subtle nuances that increase the deadliness of bludgeons and clubs, and some club designs that are found nowhere else in the world. As for stone knives and celts... some of the most advanced and best crafted lithics in the world.
