Here it is..These U'U clubs were interesting...The U'U was as much a weapon as an ornamental object denoting membership in the Marquesan warrior caste, which was an upper or elite caste in this society. They were constantly carried by members of this group. I put a lot of aging on this one, distressing, burnishing, etc. Virani wanted this one to look like the genuine. Me tried me best. Aloha!
