Hi All
Picked this up in trade the other day. Club has small head with iron nails light weight but nicely done. More a scepter than a war club I would say. |

Very nice indeed, just my thing. I really like these sort of boss man sticks/batons only for those confident of thier position. Does anybody know if western military top brass still have such things?
Here are two nice South African sticks next to a leather covered mid 20th century British military example. Last edited by Tim Simmons; 27th May 2009 at 09:01 PM. |

Western Military
Nice one Lew
Tim, I've got a beautiful bronze top and bronze ferrule club walking stick here I beleive is from one of the western armed forces. I'll email a pic to you to see what you think. You are welcome to publish it if you think it will help with further learning. Gav Last edited by freebooter; 28th May 2009 at 02:57 PM. |
