Goat Roper Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 A few years ago I bought a British East India walking stick at Galare guest house, on the river not far from PornPing hotel. They had a small tour section, sold these walking sticks. A good value and will last for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thighlander Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 Yeah, I'm thinkin' similar area. Seems like for years there was a place near TG, just north of John's place that was selling the Burmese walking sticks for about 300ish. A nice piece of rebar makes a much better dog weapon.

There are several different places on Tha Pae Road that sell them. Mainly familiar with the North side of the street. Could have some on the south side also. I believe they are called Burmese walking sticks. Not that great if you need them for support. A cane should be only from the ground to Your wrist. Any thing higher and you are using your arm mussels. In fact that might be a bit high. Test them by using them as you are stranding on some thing. If on the other hand you just want one for looks and to smack a soi dog they are great. They can also be unscrewed at the half way point for packing purposes.

Radical thought.......maybe because OP is talking about a walking stick he does not mean a cane......just a thought. Is there nothing you will not post on.......paint drying, dead cockroaches, blue sky, .....you going to have a better daily/average than an English opening batsman soon. Your eating into my bandwidth. Edited June 6, 2014 by mamborobert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your eating into my bandwidth. and I did call them walking sticks and told him the area they were in. You have a problem with that? What have you added that is of any help. So I explained the difference between a cane and a walking stick. Sorry if you feel inferior about the little bit of extra knowledge I passed on.
