The Eskimo paddle is a century-old tool. The Paddle is developed
through generations, refined and adapted to the task. Quick and silent
rowing in all weathers, with the least possible use of power and
precious human energy.
The paddle were made by the Norsemen from the drift wood, and this
had naturally affect on the paddle design.

Also
access tools set limits on creativity. The lack of tools, was largely
replaced by time and dexterity, and we can see very beautiful old craft
in museums today.
Today we have access to all kinds of wood, glue and tools, and we can
make a paddle that suits the individual person's physical needs and
aesthetic sense.
