This blackthorn Shillelagh features a sloped L-shaped handle with a tail, similar to a door knocker, set at roughly a 45-degree angle. This unique design gives it a distinctive look and feel, making it stand out as a traditional yet unusual piece.
Due to the angled handle, it is not suited for leaning as a walking aid, but it works very well as a hiking stick, offering control and versatility on uneven ground. The shaft has a rustic natural finish, showing the character of the blackthorn, and is treated with boiled linseed oil to protect the wood while maintaining its authentic appearance.
This is a great accessory stick with plenty of personality, ideal for those looking for something different for outdoor use.
You’ll receive the exact stick shown in the photo. The stick can be sized to your preferred length — you can leave a note at checkout or get in touch to discuss, but we generally recommend shortening it yourself once you have it in hand so you can choose the perfect height.
