Attwood Wooden Canoe Paddle, Ergonomic Grip, Premium Wood Construction, Protective Finish

This wooden oar was exactly what I was looking for. Best price around! It showed up in good condition and the delivery was seamless!

I bought this paddle with some amount of hesitation after reading the reviews. But at $12.50, I decided to take the risk. Amazon prime delivered the paddle quickly, and I got to work on making an end of tour plaque for my colleague who was getting transfered to another duty station. THe 2.5 ft length was great for a plaque of this nature, as it wasn't too long, but not too short. I've seen people with big plaques on their "I love me" walls, but this one seemed to be classy and a perfect size. The plaque came varnished already, and the quality of varnish seemed great. If you're making a paddle plaque and don't have a lot of time to refinish this thing, then this might work for you. There is a sticker on the back that you'll have to peel off, and some writing also that can come off with some fine sandpaper. Worst case scenario is that you'll have to sand a little bit off it and refinish. But I decided to sand off everything and repaint before refinishing. I ended up also drilling a hole to put a command coin in there, and some small holes for rank insignia. The type of wood that the paddle was made of was easy to work with, and didn't crack when placed under the drillpress. I was pretty happy with how well the paint stuck, and the finished product looked great after wrapping with some 550lb. Type III Paracord 100' Black , with a couple fancy knots. We also used an engraved metal plate with a little "thank you" note, stuck directly on the paddle, and left the back of it unfinished so that people could sign with a gold pen.

Good quality product

Well built nice sturdy paddle for the kids - however was expecting two toned as pictured. Received one solid light colored pine paddle not striped.

These paddles have been fantastic! The grip is easy and comfortable, and the slim profile makes them super convenient to store—both during transport and at home. We've used them all summer with our 16'9" Old Town canoe and they still look brand new. The length is perfect, and they float if accidentally dropped, which is a great safety feature. Durable, lightweight, and reliable—highly recommend!

Love it

For decorative use and award paddles. Not straight and even, but it will work. Made in China. No branding or logo. Some deep scratches on the varnish or clear coat. Huge pooling of varnish or clear coat on the blade's edge. Will order some more because it's cheaper to make these than to custom order them.

Okay so unconventional use: my husband decided to get 2 of these for my Moana obsessed 3 year olds who like to get in the baskets for blankets and pretend it’s Moana’s boat. They LOVE these (and haven’t wacked each other yet somehow??). Being 3, they beat these up and scrape on concrete and they still look amazing with only minor scratching.

子ども用に購入しましたが、カヌー用というよりはディスプレイ用？のような作りかと思いました。 重いし厚いし、自分で薄く削るほうが良さそうです

Super produit

Exactly what I was looking for for home decor! They are the perfect size! (2 1/2 ft)

Good quality, nice looking paddle.
