Probably not. You could guild the lily with a blade tip wrap in
glass/epoxy, and varnish overall....
When I was a kid fifty years ago we had a kayak paddle around the lake
place. Varnished with copper on the tips.
I made a wood and canvas kayak as a kid - but I went to buy a kayak
paddle. Wood shafts and blades, with brass connectors, but copper clad
tips were not to be had - so I went with glass wrapped blade tips.
Later, tipped a passenger into the (shallow) water when I tried to stand
up - in a kayak! (dumb, dumb, dumb...)
