    Stick Questions for our Native Scots

    One of members just posted about a lovely "market stick" he had just created. I am intrigued and thinking about making one. To be honest I'm not sure I exactly what a market stick is. I'm familiar with cromachs but not this style. Thinking about it further I think it would be very useful to myself and any other stick makers here on XMTS to understand the subject better. So I thought I would put it to Jock Scot and his fellow highlanders to perhaps give us stick makers a "Highland stick 101" class so we understood the various types of sticks the Scots use in traditional highland dress as well as when/where they carry them, and why.

    Cheers
