Aloha again TC Ohana!
Heres a few more new carvings for you all to spark!

This first carving is another one of my "tiki" makau. Carved from rare extinct stellar sea cow bone, this makau features the ki'i of Hawaiian god Lono(god of peace & prosperity). Carved front & back, this makau is finished off with a nice knotted ridge lashing and a tradtional Hawaiian style plaited kaula...




These next buggah's are a few new kahiko style Hawaiian makau. Starting on the left, ancient style "jabbing" hook made from ancient mammoth Ivory. Next is an "ulua" style Hawaiian makau made from rare mammoth rib bone (nice chocolaty color, yeah?) and one the far right is an ancient Hawaiian style "incurved" makau made from stellar sea cow bone!

Mahalo for looking! Some of these carvings are for sale so check the Tiki marketplace if you'd like to inquire about owning one of da kine!

Malama Pono!
