Most of these sticks are made from weatherproof materials such as polypropylene and aluminum to make them usable in every climatic condition. These sticks, also called trekking poles are used while hiking, trekking or Nordic walking.

Unlike other brands, Cold Steel has invested its time and interests in designing the sharpest knives and outdoor tools. BLACKTHORN SHILLELAGH SKU: CS-91PBSH 39.99 Cold Steels Irish Blackthorn Walking Stick has been a firm fan favorite since its inception. It's a superb faux Blackthorn stick, and since it's injection molded from polypropylene, it will never warp, crack, swell up, or splinter and is easy to maintain with a little soap and water.Cold Steel is a knife and tool manufacturing company founded in 1980 in the USA. It was copied carefully, and then artfully modified to a point where it not only mimics nature, but actually rivals and supersedes anything the natural world could produce! If nature had fashioned the most perfect Blackthorn stick, and you were lucky enough to come by it, our Irish Blackthorn Walking Stick is what it would look like. Our Irish Blackthorn Walking Stick is inspired by an authentic Blackthorn from Cold Steel President, Lynn C. It was because Blackthorn is difficult to come by and, since it’s grown and not manufactured, it is somewhat inconsistent in quality.Ĭold Steel's recent forays into injected molded polypropylene products has yielded some impressive results and now we have produced a new polypropylene Blackthorn that has all of the advantages of real Blackthorn and none of its pitfalls. The English didn’t want to appear unreasonable by outlawing walking sticks too, so the Irish kept their modified shillelaghs and the world gained a beautiful and functional walking stick known simply as the Blackthorn.Ĭold Steel made the effort to obtain and sell authentic Blackthorn sticks over fifteen years ago, but the venture turned out to be disappointing, and not because the sticks didn’t sell well. To get around the law, the Irish turned the shillelagh into a 3-foot walking stick.
In expert hands the shillelagh was so fearsome that during the final occupation of Ireland, the English outlawed it. The original Blackthorn sticks were 2 to 4 foot long Irish shillelaghs (the national weapon of rural Ireland). It has been prized for centuries as a material for premium walking sticks. The Blackthorn bush is found throughout Ireland and the British Isles.
