Souvenir hunters, especially the weirdos out there who love collecting knives, will lap up the cannibal forks, lethal spears and war clubs. It's not all brutal, though and there are plenty of other, less sadistic, objects to glimpse, with woven mats, wall hangings and pottery aplenty. As well as the usual postcards and ‘I Love Fiji' shirts, Fijian-Indian jewellery is also popular among tourists.
