These look like "modern" Hoboes. The lines are too straight which suggest they were done by macihne. In the second one, the toning was not a characteristic of original Hoboes.

 

However, they are very cool looking!! thumbsup2.gif

Each is hand carved using hand tools, many of which the artist made himself just for the purpose of his craft.

 

NO machining and/or dremel here. Just time and talent.
