this ones just a bit different , 31 inches overall length, with two knife blades mounted where you generally find just one , or sometimes a spike . like the other it is white oak . decorated with tacks , and glass and bone beads inletted into the wood . a horse warriors weapon , the blades are cut from a short sword ,and are carbon steel , they are slightly off set , have viewed several originals , seems there should be a couple of "imperfections " the wrist strap is deer skin and the scalp is human hair ! besides tacks and beads , there are burnt in dots and coup marks . if I do another club , I`m thinking of something entirely different , south east woodland !

That club has a, well, "menacing beauty" about it.  It also looks pretty wicked.  You've obviously spent a lot of time studying these varying cultural styles.  How would a SE woodland club differ, exactly?
Young guys should hang out with old guys; old guys know stuff.

tad plainer , and some difference in overall shape , although they did use some gunstock clubs !
