At a flea market this morning and found this rather nice colonial cosh swagger stick. Compacted leather discs on a iron core construction late 19th early 20th century. I do not think it anything to do with ww1 trench artifacts. Although the white metal alloy parts are European in influence it is not European manufacture well certainly not British. My thoughts are East African could be Indian but??? African. Over all length 62cm the steel tip is 47mm long which I assume is the whacking and poking end. A much better buy than a few packs of those cold unpleasant eating pre-made packs of sandwiches that are so popular in the UK. yuk
