I HAVE NOT SEEN ANY FIGHTING STICKS OF THAT FORM BUT IT RESEMBLES A SPEAR OR ARROW POINT FROM THE SOUTH PACIFIC OR A LOVE STICK FROM MICRONESIA. YOU CAN GOOGLE (MICRONESIA LOVE STICK) FOR FURTHER INFORMATION. IF IT IS LARGE ROUND AND HEAVY THAT WOULD ELIMINATE IT FROM BEING EITHER OF THE ABOVE. LOVE STICKS ARE USUALLY FLAT AND THIN AND SPEAR AND ARROW POINTS LIGHT AND THIN. THEY DO HAVE FIGHTING STICKS IN THE SOUTH PACIFIC WHICH ARE GRIPPED IN THE MIDDLE AND CAN STRIKE TO EITHER SIDE THEY ARE USUALLY FAIRLY SHORT FOR SPEED AND SO THEY WONT STICK AS MULTIPLE STABS ARE OFTEN NECESSARY TO WIN A FIGHT. THE WOOD IN YOUR EXAMPLE DOES NOT LOOK LIKE THOSE USUALLY USED IN THE ISLANDS. GOOD LUCK I HOPE YOU FIND IT IS ACTUALLY WHAT YOU ARE WISHING FOR.
