The wirri is a wooden club made out of eucalyptus timber. The wirri is used for fighting with people or hitting and throwing at animals during hunting. Historically wirri clubs can come in various shapes and forms. The typical design of a Kaurna wirri has a small tear drop or round head for hitting. The skinny shaft has fluted grooves running length ways down the shaft. The shaft can be straight or bend depending the personal preference. The handle has small short cuts running around the handle to help to grip the club with your hand.
