Fold Saws
These paddles are the traditional double blade kayak paddle of the Pacific Northwest. Similar to the Greenland paddle the Aleutian paddle has a convex blade face on one side. The other side of the blade is nearly flat with a center rib that both stiffens the paddle and helps water shed evenly off the face.

from $300
Harpoon Knob The two different blade faces offer the paddler two different paddling options. The side witht the rib is the power face and the the convex side (back face) sculls very well like a Greenland paddle.
Harpoon Knob The flat side with the rib I call the power face because it grabs the water in a way I find remancent of a euroblade.
Harpoon Knob These paddles all have shoulders that gently terminate at the blade.
Harpoon Knob Unlike the Greenland paddle you do not hold the loom & base of the blade. You have your whole hand on the loom when using an Aleutian paddle.
Harpoon Knob Aleutian paddles come in 3 and 5 layer vertial laminations. Your choice of woods however I suggest different combinations of cedar. Basic art work like the paddles shown above is $45. Send me your images and I can give you a price for more complex art work.
