P A D D L E !

I made this paddle as a joke for a former co-worker of mine.
All jokes aside though, how bad-ass is this thing?!?
From the tip to pommel it measures about 24" , 1" thick and about 10" wide!
Several coats of walnut stain were used, with a matte finish coating to seal it. The handle was wrapped in black suede (similarly to how a hockey stick is wrapped) metal upholstery nails, with an antique hammered finish, were used to make it more intimidating. More of those nails were used to add additional grip to the sides of the handle.
