Eagle War Club

Sold: $900

Another very fancy presentation war club carved from Grade 6 curly maple. The curl runs the full length of the weapon The butt is carved into the wing of a bird of prey, ands the grip ends in an eagle’s head. Brass tacks decorate the sides and provide a secure grip. An obsidian blade projects from the striking edge. A deer-antler-mounted horsehair scalplock and raptor feather hang from the drop with deerskin thongs. The stock is treated with Aqua Fortis, heated, and then finished with several coats of hand-rubbed tung oil to bring out the beauty of the curl. Pretty but functional: one of the better-balanced clubs I have made.

The obsidian blade is 4" long by 1.75" wide. The club is 36" long, 6" wide by 1.25” thick at the butt.

    Architecture and award-winning museum-quality custom handmade knives, edged weapons, powder horns, tomahawks, war clubs, jewelry, metal sculpture, cribbage boards, flint and obsidian knives, Japanese swords, menorahs, and more from Tucson, Arizona artist and architect Larry Gotkin.
