wooden shaft
Carved lumber handle
A wooden shaft is a long, straight piece of wood serving as the handle or body of a tool or weapon.
Arrows, spears, axes, golf clubs, and hammers traditionally have wooden shafts.
The term emphasizes the material, often contrasting with modern alternatives: The old hammer had a wooden shaft; the new one is fiberglass.
