## Description

New Zealand Pine Wood Paddle. Natural finish wood paddle

Review: Great oars for saving yourself on the river - But one of these about a year ago to use on our river trips and it is definitely been helpful because it is completely solid and wood compared to the plastic ones that are flimsy and you can’t use them to push off the side to get away from the trees. Ordered another one this year so that we could have two orders on each side of our raft. Definitely a lot better if you have the right need for it.
Review: Purchased to leverage a very heavy Big Fig bed mattress! - My wife and I purchased a Big Fig bed mattress that is virtually impossible to lift or raise up a corner to properly attach a fitted sheet on same. At first I used a wooden pizza peel to gain some leverage, but the four feet long paddle has proven itself and saved the day yesterday morning after my work phone fell off the headboard and hid itself under the bed. Not the way I like starting my day, but thank the UFO cat gods for this quality product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: On the 5’ paddle- how long is the shaft before the paddle portion- I am using it as a curtain rod**
A: Correct me if I am wrong, but can't this paddle be ordered in different lengths.- 54 inches, 58 inches,- that sort of thing?  I would have not ordered it, otherwise.

**Q: I am looking to use thsi as a coat rack ( I will mount 4" boat cleats). As such, how wide is the shaft? Is the shaft oval/rounded or flat on the sides**
A: It has a flat shaft where you can mount the cleats... it curves around the sides. Think it will work great. They are well made and pretty.

**Q: What’s the Blade length/width?**
A: 17.5" x 6".  The length, by the way I measured from the paddle tip to the point where the blade began to straighten out.

**Q: How does one determine proper canoe paddle length?**
A: 4 ft long is the lenght i use for canoeing.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-stars as craft item -- 1 star as actual canoe paddle
*by W***I on April 24, 2024*

See that SUPER FAT paddle in the middle? That's this one. The ones on right and left are ACTUAL paddles you'd want to use while canoeing. This would be *terrible* as an actual canoe paddle (but yes, better than nothing). It's thick, finish is "meh", heavy, and handle is shaped the wrong way for comfortable holding. That is, the oval on a good paddle goes at 90 degrees to blade surface, this one goes parallel and would be uncomfortable to hold for the lower hand. HOWEVER, as a craft item (which is why I bought it), it's just fine. Great value here. It's thick enough to use as a structural member of a project. I bought mine to paint and hang on the wall, and it's just fine for that. So, depending on your use, 1-star or 5-star product. I gave it 4 on average because if used outside the water, no problem. In water? Spend more and don't hate the paddle. Even a plastic paddle is better for actual paddling.
