Inherited this from a friend’s wall who passed in '06, in Canmore, AB.
Batman.
Is it a canoe paddle? A photo of the entire object would provide better information to identify it.
Appears to be custom made or at least the artwork is. Nothing like it on the internet that I could find.
Ummm. Impeccably made as in shaped and the clear-coat
You might try posting on myccr.com since there are more Canadians on that site that might have some insight.
thanks, good idea
Just for fun I used google image search. Something about STAR WARS JEDI order Rebel Alliance logo (available on Amazon) but more goose oriented. Rather fun, now back to what I was supposed to be doing.
It did glow as I once raised it in self-defence…
It’s an otter-tail paddle (most paddles are broader and shorter beaver-tail blades). I have a very similar one made of cherry from Redtail Paddles, a Canadian maker, that I bought from Umingmaq Paddle Touring Center in Northern Wisconsin. I agree it could be a home made with a personalized design on it, possibly taken from First Nations’ imagery.
Thanks. It’s a 64.5" so if it’s homemade someone tall made it lol.
I’ve got a Redtail too, my fav, with a gold etched logo. Too tall it was, so I shortened it, switched to a mushroom grip. The grip I twisted a bit and nailed it (figuratively) -perfect angle. No one else gets to paddle this one
Whoa, that is a loooong paddle. Maybe for a midget’s SUP?
You could use it as a “peel” to shove pizzas into a very deep brick oven.
That paddle has far more power than an ordinary light saber. Think Infinity Orb.
Have you determined whether it is a Quill or Ray’s Special?
Have you used it yet?
Tom, Not either of those, I’d looked at their site. I’ve used it a bit not much, it’s too long. So I’m waiting for a tall sea nymph to show up alongside my canoe and so I can entice her with her own beautiful paddle.
Not sure we can midget anymore. Looong-paddle-challenged person.
Classic Ray Kettlewell paddle
I have a few
Worth bucks
