Pros:
- from the look, great length for a sword
- looks straight enough
- the thickness doesn't seem too thin so might be okay to throw
Cons:
- Aerodynamics need work
- adding a point increases the coolness factor by a substantial percentage
- not thick/long enough so it can't serve as a walking stick imo
In conclusion, solid 8/10. Good stick
I think this would make for a pretty fine walking stick if you ask me, doubles as a bush clearing stick when needed
This guy sticks
Ugh unsolicited stick pics 😮💨
It's nice though lol
Hey I’ve got a question for you: what’s brown and sticky?
Parcel tape
Not as good as mine.
We should make a stick enthusiast community. I can if no one else wants to.

It's a good stick. Not as good as the one I saw on the Internet recently that had a nearly perfect guard and hilt like a sword, but still pretty awesome.
For the people that want to ban sticks here: please don't take away my joy!
I asked my child, an expert in this field, and he gives it a one trillion out of ten.
Length 10/10 Girth 9/10 Smoothnes 6/10
I like a smooth stick. This is a good stick. I wish it didn't have jagged edges. But it sure is a trekking buddy. 8/10
Yes.
Brother, that's a solid 10
I'd say it's a 6. Nice and straight with very little taper. Those little branch nubbins would make it suck to hold at the end, and the bark needs to be stripped off across the entire thing. I'd take a belt sander to it and clean it up some
I've never had a stick as good tbh.
Brown and sticky, 10/10
Sorry mate but I have to give it a 6 because the nubs would dig into your hand when walking. A bit of whittling would take it up to an 8 tho
Very nice stick. You even trimmed off the brush so it looks bigger.
You got a ten from all 3 of my boys.
What's that, about 3/4" at the top? Seems sturdy, reliable. It could use some decorating, maybe a feather or rounded-off handle. Nice and straight too, not too rigid but not too curved up... I'd give this stick a 7.2 out of a maximum possible score of 10.
That, my dude, is an impressive stick.
That's a 9/10 stick you got there buddy, would def take it hiking.
i was gonna say 6 at the first pic, but the second pic makes me think it's an 8! nice taper, nice size, i like how the little nubs add visual interest.
7 out of 10. 9 with rice.
6/8.75
Too perfect
An excellent stick, my friend
It's hard to judge a stick without feeling it's heft but from looks alone I give it a 6 maybe. Above average for shape and length but the bark quality (aesthetically) and the lumps really take from its value.
At another glance I can tell this stick was recently living and probably quite solid as such. I'll raise it to 7/10
Lovely stick 9/10 might even be a 10/10 but I couldn't quite visualise the length.
Looks like it's got some heft to it. That'll definitely do the job. 8/10
8/10. I would definitely find a use for this stick on an adventure.
7/10. Good form, but that wet side makes me worry it could be weakened by rot.
With evidence of a successful truck smack test, I’d be open to raising my rating.
Hang on let me bring in a stick expert...
(Someone please get the reference so I don't look like a total idiot)
Elbows too pointy 2/10, would not bang
Its very long and massive therefore too big for whooping ass as it would put too much strain on wrist. Troy's Nana would whoop you for even showing her such a switch.
Its very straight. And knotty. I imagine its very strong! Very good. I give it a 9/10. I wonder what a perfect stick looks like, maybe this is it, but I'm not confident enough to give it a 10.
8/10
I'd give it a 7. Would be higher if it was longer.
Nice stick
A solid 8.
On the scale of all sticks: 9
On the scale of sticks that are worthy of being picked up: 6
It appears a bit brittle, more girth at the bottom may be necessary if used for weight bearing activities 🤔
