Thanks Jim...I had to look up what a Belaying pin is...However after looking at a bunch of photos on google images, link above, I don't think they are belaying pins...There would be a stop on the neck...or to put it another way the narrower handle part would be longer...

And I looked at photos of seal clubs...all the ones I saw were quite a bit longer, link above to images....so I'm crossing that one out too...

Nevertheless thanks for your input...
