Re: [Bartitsu_Forum] Walking Sticks

You could always try to make your own.  I've had a few crooked canes, walking sticks and bhatas that I've made from different kinds of wood, they hold up well and it was easy and fun to do. 
 
PS:  I have little knowledge of wood working but I could make a walking stick with ease.

I've had a couple of good sticks from www.saddler. co.uk. I know they
ship to the US, and I imagine the recent movements in Sterling would
make them more attractive than they were previously.

You can make your own crooked cane out of a stock cane.  I pay $8 bucks for the raw hickory cane and put some work on it, it comes out nice.  I've been doing...
