I just picked up this war club or at least I think it is. It is 19" long, almost 4" in diameter at the head. It has the weight and feel of a fighting club, however, the face carving would make it impractical for such.
Does anyone know what this is and where it comes from? |

A club so ugly that one can not see the face..........the last picture; I'll try to take a better one.

I think I found my long lost brother! With the offset head, I feel mine could be patterned after a Massi Rungu Club.

Good possibility...
My rungu for comparison. One ebony, one from a lighter wood. Your back-of-the-head photo hints at a lighter wood, stained or fire blackened. |
