The letter opener should be marked on the top center of the headress...Coco Joe, lava, made in Hawaii

Yeah the seller didn't have any background on the boat. Its big though 30" long & 10 1/2 wide. The orange shellac he put on it really makes it look as if it were made of oak, but I assume its another type wood.

Thanks for the opener info. Looked Coco Joe's but somehow I missed that marking.
