Ken, would you mind posting a full length picture of your staff? Nice example.

V nice Kronckew,

You must have some collection to have omitted straight off to show this example.

Most of the ones I have found on my net searching do not have any scale embellishment on the snakes.

OK, this conversation has got me a bit wound up in a good way. What do I have here then? Bought as a walking stick at a Steampunk fair, and used by me as such.... but there s a clear resemblance to others posted here.

Looks like So. African 'assagai wood' - One clue: Does it float or sink in a bathtub of water?

I have a fair number of wooden bashing thingies. Some are locked in my Storeroom. Out of sight, out of mind.


(This snakey one was propped up in a corner of my living room, about 6 ft. from my TV Chair. It was staring at me & I didn't notice.)
