Thumbs up Big Solomon Islands paddle club

I got this today. Said goodbye to a few old friends but got this very special new one. Heavy 130cm long, the head is 30cm long. There are two bruises to the wood ethier side just at the base of the paddle. There is also a repair to the paddle on one edge. This repair appears to be an old native repair using Atuna tree nut paste. Looking close I now realise that what I thought were bruises to the wood is in fact a knot.
