Holden,
That war club swizzle is fantastic. Great idea.
Here's another design that will be out soon (left on my pillow by the swizzle fairy):

Sabu --Formica makes for an awfully hard pillow case, no?
Btw, I was not only asking for information on my "Mystery Swizzle Stick" post, but also meant to encourage anybody who has any no-name Tiki swizzles to post them so their origin might be found! (...excluding Mr. Kona Kai)

Not exactly swizzles, but......
The lovely ladies at the Kona Club in Piedmont Ca supplied my son and I with a handfull of cup hangers, (Monkeys, Mermaids, and the ever popular Pink Elephants). I have a number of F.I swizzels and a few T.V Menehune's that float around my drinks. These are just as much a part of "The Shrine" as the mugs and the Tikis. Pictures to follow.

WHOA! 
How about a round of applause for The Fraternal Order of Moai and their Outstanding Kick Ass Swizzle! I hope this isn’t some sort of F.O.M. secret but it’s so great anytime there is a new Tiki Swizzle. It looks like the swizzle resurgence wheels are turning a little more and I hope this means that we’ll see more great custom pieces soon. Well done F.O.M.

Glad you like them, Bora Boris. The manufacturer, Royer Corp., did a bang up job!
Definitely not a secret, they have been used at events like the recent Urban Luau at Eastern Standard in Boston and I think I see a few in the pictures from the Trader Vic's party in L.A. yesterday too?
Here's a picture that is a bit more clear...

Thank you Rev Thumper,
My Camera hates me at the moment and thank you and all of the F.O.M members for not just talking about someday getting some swizzles made but for actually doing it.

I cannot take any credit for it, my only role has been vigorous field testing of the final product.

Not bad for a small, off the strip, 7 month old tiki bar.
