Pahoa; cool small town contest

[Delta9r]

Old Hawaiians called canoe carving "Kalai Wa'a," or "Canoe Cutting." Although daggers weren't used to carve canoes, daggers are used to "Cut." Via extrapolation we arrive at the "Cutting" nature of the Pahoa area as pertains to the aforementioned milling operations, ergo the name "Pahoa."
