Sanborn Canoe Co. | Handmade Lightweight Wooden Canoe, Kayak ans Stand Up Paddles

Specifications

Handmade in America!

Every Sanborn Canoe Co. paddle is handcrafted in Winona, Minnesota.

Our Sam’s Special wooden canoe paddle is great for that leisurely paddle around the lake and on extended trips too! You will love the slightly narrower and rounded blade as it will slip in and out of the water with less force required, taking stress off of your paddling.

It is a straight-shaft super light-weight canoe paddle. The blade is sheathed in fiberglass and a hard epoxy tip is added to ward off pesky logs and rocks. And the t-grip, indexed shaft and thin blade are all designed to remove stress from your hands and joints.

The name Sam’s Special comes from our original tool supplier. Must be some supplier to have a paddle named after him, huh? Well actually when we were starting out we were like any other start-up business and had very limited resources and even less tools! So we went into our friend Sam’s garage and stole (with his blessing) most of the tools that got us started on our first canoe and paddles. Thanks Sam!
