What is this?

[VANDOO]

SUCH THINGS COME FROM TIBET OR CHINA IT WOULD NOT BE A ACTUAL WEAPON BUT IS LIKELY A RITUAL WEAPON. THE PHURBA EDDIE MURPHY IS HOLDING IS SUCH A WEAPON (THE MOVIE WAS (THE GOLDEN CHILD)
THERE IS A LARGE VARIETY OF THEM MOST OF WHICH ARE FOR THE TOURIST TRADE BUT THERE ARE A FEW GUINUIE ONES AROUND THOUGH RARE. I WOULD CLASSIFY THIS FORM AS A RICTUAL BATON OR STAFF.
