The club, also the cudgel, bludgeon, shillelagh, bang or knobkerrie, doubles as a hand-held melee weapon and hurled weapon; made of only hardwood, it is a stick about 24 to 30 inches with a hardened, rounded knob on its end. It has the benefit that anyone can make a club, and that club-like objects — like a table-leg, piece of bannister or belaying pin — can serve as a club if no other weapon is available.
Clubs with spikes, metal-weighted heads, chiseled sharp edges or with metal studs are more correctly described as maces or godentags, and are not discussed here.
