My stick is made of fairly heavy dense wood and oddly just too short to work as a walking stick. I am only 5' 8" so not tall. Sticks are important objects in Africa and stick fighting almost a continent wide sport. Another area where knowledge seems in short supply.
"Edit" The neck on this second stick looks rather too delicate to be a fighting stick. It is possible that sticks are made and carried as a shadow of former times.
