Tiki spoon,

Moai started out as Moai/Ku hybrid, didn't wanna try to be "clever" so I carved the Ku bye bye, lil' Maori style Ku on bottom, Lono headdress/ moai topknot and Melanesian mask are all being tossed around for top , makau at bottom of piece becomes Maori tongue. I'll do the Moai head/ Ku full body hybrid next time.

Used the exacto knife (dull -- time to get new blade) and a lil' hack saw.

Maori "KU"

Thanks 4 all the support!
