No, this is no orc spear or some other movie prop but you might consider this an as cruel device.
This crude tool actually is a real whaling harpoon, used in the early 1800’s!
Although I hope we all agree that hunting these majestic creatures is a horrible occasion, the whaling industry has been very important to the European history and economy. Back then the oil that was obtained from whales was used to produce many everyday products such as lamp oil, candles, and soap and therefor was essential. Sadly overhunting the arctic seas for centuries has been devastating to the populations of many whale species. Because of its dark past, mixed vibes remain attached to this rare relic though I still consider it a true piece of history that comes with loads of adventurous tales!
It was hand-wrought and forged in iron with a cone to attach a wooden handle.
This relic would be an unique piece to add to your whaling collection or cabinet of curiosities!
After almost two centuries the harpoon remains in worn condition and shows an oxidised patina.
After sanding off the coarse rust the iron tool has been treated with antique wax to give the surface a protective layer and a subtle glossy finish.
This beautiful instrument was built by the Italian Eko luthier company which became famous for making and exporting professional quality guitars and other stringed instruments worldwide!

This unique instrument can still be played but it would also be the perfect decor piece to any lodge or cabin!
Considering its age the banjolin remains in used, but good condition!
Due to time and use it shows some minor signs of wear.
Except of minimal treatment I decided to leave the banjo in its original condition and leave it up to the next owner to either keep it that way or fully restore it. The banjolin currently is in playable condition but might need new strings.
