Ah, yes, warclubs from Oceania can be very interesting. Lots of great craftsmanship, and pretty effective designs too. Warclubs are definitely underestimated, as are non-metal weapons in general.

interestingly it looks very close to a curve ruler used mostly in architecture and engineering drawings some years before CAD.

I used that mentioned ruler years before in my childhood days to draw kind of an sword/axe like mixed thing.
It surprised me also some years before that those Polynesian weapons have a very similar form as these curve-rulers
If I found the scan/photo of it I will upload... or maybe a redone drawing of it.

I should take a picture of my templates and post it. It might be helpful to others...

great design! I think clubs are undervalued, so its good to see one that looks like a real weapon and not just a branch or random peice of wood.
