I recently saw a full size jade mere (a Maori club about 14 inches long) listed on TradeMe.com (a New Zealand auction site). It was a neat item and not too expensive; and the seller said it even had a hole in the handle so you could attach a cord and wear it as a pendant. I guess those Kiwis have really strong necks, but do you think that a cord with your wood clubs would work for us Yanks? On a more serious note, have you ever worked with bubinga (an African wood)? It has a beautiful golden-brown hue when finished and a subtle grain that would look good with your clubs. [ Edited by: timidtiki 2007-09-17 11:20 ]
