The mythical dragon has captured the imagination of man for centuries. Asian folklore casts them as benign creatures, mans allies in a hostile world, or as symbols of imperial Chinese power, used as motifs on palace walls and on soldiers breastplates. In the west, they were known to be fierce adversaries – fire breathing, clever beasts who rained destruction and leveled villages. The brave knight who slew one could return to his village after winning the hand of the fetching fair maiden he saved from the dragons wrath.
Legends aside, a dragon is a powerful creature with extraordinary physical attributes that command respect across the board. It is for this reason that the dragon serves as inspiration for this walking stick. The Dragon Walking Stick is modeled after the intricately carved Dragon Stick from the Cold Steel President Lynn Thompsons collection. This version has been faithfully recreated using hand engraved injection molds. The detailing is astonishing, with scales running the full length of the undulating shaft and a fearsome face with snarling fangs forming the handle. It is an imposing stick you will be proud to be seen with on almost any occasion. It is fashioned from the highest grade of high impact polypropylene available, assuring its imperviousness to the elements and guaranteeing it is virtually indestructible. Black in color and sinuous in shape and form, it offers light to medium support and a number of grip options, making it unusually suitable as an aid to balance as well as a powerful ally in an emergency self-defense situation.

This is a great walking stick, solid construction – the only thing I might mention is that the bottom is slippery on linoleum or hardwood surfaces if using indoors you will need a rubber piece for the bottom.

This staff is every bit as beautiful as it looks. It’s well cast, nearly invisible seams and the injection points blend well with the scales. It feels extremely durable, though it can suffer from small nicks and scratches if you’re very careless with it. It seems like it might hold paint well if you decided to paint over it.
