Yes, it is amazing. But while marveling at this sling, I constantly ask myself: Why? E.g. the feather-adorned release "knob" (?). And it may be quite heavy and thus akward to swing? And the strings might also be rather fragile as they seem to be rather thin...
Anyone in for a reconstruction?
It's beautiful, but I would assess it more as a ceremonial item than as a sling for use...
There are andean sling slings for ceremonial use, but these are quite different from this one.
