Cold Steel Irish Blackthorn 37 Inch Polypropylene Stick

The Cold Steel Irish Blackthorn is a 37 inch black polypropylene walking stick with a faux wood handle.

The blackthorn stick, or shillelagh, is an Irish pattern with a heavy knobbed head, and it has been both a walking aid and a defensive tool for centuries. Cold Steel builds this one in polypropylene rather than blackthorn wood, which removes the variability of a natural stick and the cost that comes with a genuine one.

Polypropylene will not rot, split or absorb water the way wood does, so it can be left in a vehicle or a porch without deteriorating. At 37 inches it suits a walking length for most adults, and the material takes impact without the risk of a natural stick failing along a grain line. Explore more camp accessories.
