Great Paddle
Beautiful, light, feels great in the hands. Too early to tell on long term durability, but the craftsmanship seems top notch.

Happy Paddling
The timeline of shipping and quality of the canoe paddle are spot on. Beautiful shine and grain of the wood. I know it will provide years of happy paddling.

Disappointed but will use
While this is a nicely made paddle I was disappointed upon receiving it because 1) the tag on it said it was for deep lake paddling; had I seen this in the description of the item on line I would have kept looking for a river paddle. 2) The finish/varnish is thin and I expect to refinish it either sooner or later in the life of the paddle. I will use it but it is not what I really wanted; price good. I think a higher-end product, made in Maine, will better suit my intended use which is in rivers that get bony.

Civilized paddles
We have plastic blade, aluminum shaft paddles for our canoe. If the kids are out with the boat, that's what they use. If someone needs to borrow a paddle, that's what they get. But when my wife and I are paddling, it's these nice wood paddles that come out, and they just make everything better and more fun. Like drinking your coffee from a cup with a saucer under it, the wood paddles make us feel like we're doing things right.
Beavertail paddles are a classic shape that can be held close to the gunnel without interfering with it. They were traditionally made from ash, which is very strong, and very heavy. You could trust those paddles to bring you home no matter what the river threw your way. Today we just use plastic paddles in that circumstance. The wood paddles of today are mostly for show, and for use in predictable paddling conditions. The trade off is that they are very light. But the epoxy tip does a lot to improve their strength where it matters.
One other note: In cool weather, wood paddles are warm to hold, and that's something that creeps up on you over hours of paddling.
Buy this paddle for the vanity of it. And apologize to no one.

Thumbs up on the beavertail!
After years of making due with a whitewater paddle for everything, I decided to try a beavertail for flatwater applications. I'm glad I did! The bending branches paddle is beautiful, comfortable and comparatively affordable. I just returned from a four day solo trip canoeing through 22 lakes with portages between, and I marveled at how smoothly the paddle traveled through the water and how efficient my J stroke was. I wish I got this paddle years ago! As usual, LLBean service was superb. Most places were out of stock, but LL Bean had it in my size and delivered it promptly. By the way, I purchased the beavertail paddle 2 inches longer than my whitewater paddle, and it was perfect. Match shaft length rather than overall length, beavertail blades are longer.
