Scottish Canes

I came across this link while looking for walking sticks on line:

They seem a bit pricey, but I don't know that much about the subject and maybe their construction is worth the extra price.

I would appreciate knowing the prices as well. The online shops are just too over the top for me.

Not as traditional and elegant but might interest someone.

You can get the traditional Irish blackthorne walking sticks generally for around $35.00 plus shipping. They look good and are indestructible...!
