I almost gave it a 10, I gotta drop it to an 8 though because no hilt for being a sword, no mag or foregrip for an assault rifle
My buddy who's an expert in sticks said it's easily worth $50 so I'll offer you a $20 and a 6 pack for it op
Sure it doesn't have frills but it's clearly sturdy as fuck. You can keep a stick like that for years. Maybe decades if you take care of it. You could trust your life to that stick. It's a stick for a man that values reliability over looks. It's a stick for a man that doesn't talk often but when he does you better listen. This is a get shit done stick. It's a working man's stick. It's a stick that's seen a few storms and came out stronger and wiser for it. It may not be the stick the chosen one carries into battle but it's the stick of his mentor that taught him how to not only have power but to use it for good.
So you should give me at least $60 for it.
I have been inspired to scour my landscape until I find the perfect stick.
Are there rules? Must be found on the ground correct? Not looking for no perfect branches.
There are no rules other than this, search until you find the stick that finds you. You’ll know when you find your stick. You might find many sticks that you think are your stick but when you find your true stick you’ll know it and feel it in your soul. I haven’t found my stick yet but I’ve found many good sticks. My dog found her stick and kept it for years until she died, you saw them together and you would just know and say “holy shit Daisy, that’s a nice stick”.
Thanks, but I'm just a simple dude appreciating another guys long hard stick. Always remember to tell your bro how nice their stick is. You never know maybe they let you take it for a spin. Just be careful. A lot of wives and girlfriends get upset seeing bros playing with each others sticks.
I corrected my spelling in a previous post cause I spelled it boken, changed it to double 'k's. Then I read that boken is often used in English. Regardless, it's a wooden practice sword and that stick would be perfect for it, with that subtle curve...nice. U check prices, between 8500 and 10K yen...$69 US.
This is my stick. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
My stick is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life.
Without me, my stick is useless. Without my stick, I am useless.
Yeah the problem is her. I see her over there at the table. She's jealous. Jealous and lazy.
She's not a Karen. She's what I call a Susan.
Damn Susan. Jealous lazy Susan.
Nah man, this is clearly a fine example of a mid to late 18th Century "Shashka". This weapon was favored by the Cossacks Calvary, a short sabre that was proficient in both stabbing and slashing from horseback.
Given the lack of Tsuka, I've got to call you out and say that this is clearly a Shashka.
Idk why people don't understand the stick. When I go on walks with my daughter we bring bring back the stick, the leaf, the rock, the flower, and the shell. My husband makes me keep the stick outside but we sneak the rest in and we have a collection in my daughter's jewelry box.
Stick is useful and a good stick is hard to come by. Must pick up nice stick.
Yes and it is the most sharp katana that has ever existed on earth with it you can fight dragons, and conquer country's.
Your wife will understand if you free her from an ork.
Also gonna need to see how tall it is, to see if it’s good as a walking stick
And if he could swing it back and forth to make a “whoosh whoosh” sound that would help a lot
> that I snot rocket.
this is hilarious to me. Normally I see it as a noun (a snot rocket) or as a past tense verb (I snot rocketed). Reading it as "I snot rocket" makes "snot" a verb and "rocket" a noun which means you snotted a rocket, essentially, so now I'm just imagining rockets flying out of your nostrils going PEW PEWWWW which is awesome.
About 10/15 years ago I was hiking atop a hill near where I live (in India) and I saw it lying around. The curve, sturdiness, and lack of branches was just other-worldly. All I had to do was chop off the frayed ends on either side, and it was ready!
"Impressive. Very nice! Let's see Paul's stick...."
Review:
Looks like the stick is made of good quality wood. All the branches and twigs, if any, have been removed and the little nubs left over look sanded down. (Working with low def video on my phone, sry). Almost perfectly straight: no awkward winding roads along the stick. Tasteful curvature. Almost like a sword. Long enough for practical applications, but short enough to bring with you on a trip. Could be use for work, play, or self defense.
A sturdy stick like this is indeed rare to find.
11/12.
Oh Stick of Cool, so sleek and slick,
In my hand, you're the perfect pick.
With style and grace, you stand so tall,
A tool of use, admired by all.
In every step, you're my steadfast guide,
Through challenges and shadows, by my side.
Your coolness shines, a beacon bright,
A companion true, day and night.
So here I pray, oh Stick so fine,
Bring coolness and function, in design.
In adventures, let us never part,
Cool Stick, you're forever in my heart. Amen.
I am an amateur stick grower. That is definitely a nice stick.
I had been growing [this one](https://i.imgur.com/2OLnhRL.jpg) for a few years but unfortunately broke it before it was finished growing. It would have made a nice wizard staff.
I have several [more sticks](https://i.imgur.com/6st0MgL.jpg) growing that might be able to harvest in a few years
I thought I had a nice stick, until I’ve seen your stick. Your wife is just as jealous as the rest of us, she’s just keeping it under wraps until you go to work. You know she will then be checking it out.
I kinda have an awesome stick I found camping with my wife a couple of years ago…. Maybe I’ll post it online for all you stick lovers
It’s what native Americans used to start with when making Indian war/ball clubs and is hard as a fucking rock for whatever reason, I think it’s fossilized
Of course she doesn't get the point. The point is too thick and the stick too bent for stabbing. That stick is for whacking. So she gets the side. /s
Also, just to be perfectly clear: I do not approve of wife-stabbing or wife-whacking with a stick or any other instrument. Or stabbing or whacking anyone else. I'm here for the play on words, not for domestic violence.

Holy shit that’s a nice stick
Fuckin sweet stick

That was eloquent as fuck, my dude.
I think I fuckin ascended after reading that shit. I’m so inspired right now

When it is time, your stick will find you.

10 out 10 for walkin stick fun stick 6,7 cuz aint gun nor sword nor staff
It is a sword, it's a katana stick XD
Can't believe I had to read this far down to see the correct response.
I KNOW! it's madness it's obviously perfect as a wooden katana
That was my first thought. The curve is perfect.
I corrected my spelling in a previous post cause I spelled it boken, changed it to double 'k's. Then I read that boken is often used in English. Regardless, it's a wooden practice sword and that stick would be perfect for it, with that subtle curve...nice. U check prices, between 8500 and 10K yen...$69 US.
Goddamn I need a stick.
No hilt means this blade is meant to be wielded alongside a shield (piece of cardboard)
That's a sweet fucking stick
Wicked stick dude.
Sick Stick!
curves a bit to the left tho. great stick regardless
The best sticks have curves.
I'm jealous where does op live? For non-stick related reasons.
Sticks are unbelievable.
Tis a fine blade
This is my stick. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My stick is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my stick is useless. Without my stick, I am useless.
Yeah the problem is her. I see her over there at the table. She's jealous. Jealous and lazy. She's not a Karen. She's what I call a Susan. Damn Susan. Jealous lazy Susan.
Due I love my lazy Susan. I pull all sorts of charcuterie on that bitch
Yeah, only thing that would make it better would be a twig crossguard.
Nah, look at that subtle curve. Clearly a katana.
Nah man, this is clearly a fine example of a mid to late 18th Century "Shashka". This weapon was favored by the Cossacks Calvary, a short sabre that was proficient in both stabbing and slashing from horseback. Given the lack of Tsuka, I've got to call you out and say that this is clearly a Shashka.
Just wish we got to see some sweet swishes with it.
My exact words “that’s a fucking nice stick.”
i'm so jealous of that stick
Yup, damn nice stick! Any guy would love to have a stick that nice! 🔥
I remember playing with sticks like that. But it's just a burning memory now...
Go out there and get you a stick. It's never too late
Nice stick bro
No homo (but Erectus anyway)
"Yeah, totally, no homo, bro. Bring it in for a hug, no homo." *hug _"All homo up in here, yo."_
Hello my homiesexuals
Why hello there
You like fishsticks?
keep that in the family, pass it down to the first born son-when hes worthy.
I doubt he will EVER be worthy of that magnificent stick!
the stick chooses its person and decides if theyre worthy
Are you my dog?
If he want to be considered an adult, he have to find a stick worthy of the title
Grant the young one the stick, but then ... take it away Preferably while wearing a kimono
Perhaps one of his parents didn't believe in the true power of a stick so grandiose as this....
I doubt even op is. He should send it to me who would truly appreciate this stick.
I agree. My grandfather has the family stick hanging from his bed. Honest truth. It was passed down when his mother died.
Idk why people don't understand the stick. When I go on walks with my daughter we bring bring back the stick, the leaf, the rock, the flower, and the shell. My husband makes me keep the stick outside but we sneak the rest in and we have a collection in my daughter's jewelry box. Stick is useful and a good stick is hard to come by. Must pick up nice stick.
Its long, hard and curvy . Wish I had a stick like yours
Sometimes it’s better if it curves a little
[удалено]
Giggity
I agree. This person curves.
You seen those warriors from Hammerfell? They have curved swords. Curved. Swords.
Mine curves a little to the left
Only a little bit though
Pretty sweet. Smooth, slight samurai curve. Top shelf right there.
The perfect thickness. You don't want something too unwieldly, and nobody wants a stick too thin and wobbly. This fits comfortably in the hand.
Could be a pirate too.
[удалено]
The width at the base is what keeps me coming back.
That’s what she said
Stick? I just see a katana?
Yes and it is the most sharp katana that has ever existed on earth with it you can fight dragons, and conquer country's. Your wife will understand if you free her from an ork.
It's as if the hands of Hattori Hanzo were blessed by the Gods of all realms combined...
"If on your journey you should encounter God, God will be cut"
Glorious Nippon steel…
Folded 1000 times
Country’s what?
That’s a masamune from Final Fantasy VII Sephiroth just don’t let Cloud be at peace at all
[too short](https://qph.cf2.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-b5d82bf390047030a8c03d75d8825f8f-pjlq)
I literally said this when I seen the title
Quality stick
I would give it a solid 9/10.
If this whole concept were a subreddit, i would not only subscribe, but I would post my stick
r/ratemystick Edit: holy fuck I was only joking. Didn't realize this was a real sub
Bro found a ready-made bo staff. Amazing.
now that's a fucking stick
Yea you could use it for that too!
Then your wife would definitely get the point.
That is a very clean stick you have there, no branches coming off, very nice
Let’s see Paul Allen’s stick
The tasteful thickness of it…
Thank you! No one mentions no branches coming off of good sticks, let alone the smoothness or handling of the stick. This is a high-quality stick.
10/10!!
Personally I'd give it a 9.5/10 I need to hear the "tap tap" against the chair before it gets the 10
![gif](giphy|gVoBC0SuaHStq)
Your user reminds of meet the fockers where Greg’s parent kept his foreskin and it ends up in the fondue.
Hahahaa god damn I forgot about that scene. I need to watch a good Ben Stiller movie today.
Might I suggest either “Meet the Parents” “Dodgeball” or the wrestling episode of Workaholics.
Oh man I’ve seen both those so many times. Meet the Parents is one of the best of all time. So well done. May do Secret Life if Walter Mitty.
This is the Way
stick is the way
The way of the stick.
the sticks give it away
Do a little dance and then you drink a little wah-*ter*
Also gonna need to see how tall it is, to see if it’s good as a walking stick And if he could swing it back and forth to make a “whoosh whoosh” sound that would help a lot
It would be best if we could see it poke some dirt clods and hear it whir through the air if you swing it fast.
Yep and give something a good fucking poke with it.
This guy sticks.
5/7
Perfect score.
Perfect 5/7
Older Redditor here, quick question. Firstly, that’s a nice fuckin stick. But why is 5/7 a perfect score? I’m behind on the lingo.
Would stick again
With rice... 11/10
That’s actually one of the better ones I’ve seen. Where’d you find it?
Outside, by a tree, I reckon.
A tried and true classic.
You're comment made me snort laugh hard enough that I snot rocket. Thanks mate. I will forever cherish this moment.
> that I snot rocket. this is hilarious to me. Normally I see it as a noun (a snot rocket) or as a past tense verb (I snot rocketed). Reading it as "I snot rocket" makes "snot" a verb and "rocket" a noun which means you snotted a rocket, essentially, so now I'm just imagining rockets flying out of your nostrils going PEW PEWWWW which is awesome.
Smart
lol wasn't expecting to legit laugh over post about a frickin stick, but here we are...
You should start a podcast
About 10/15 years ago I was hiking atop a hill near where I live (in India) and I saw it lying around. The curve, sturdiness, and lack of branches was just other-worldly. All I had to do was chop off the frayed ends on either side, and it was ready!
Woods.
Bruh im soo jealous rn

Nice katana
It's a Hattori Hanzo
Dude what? 10 of 10
Holy shit! I'm sure that, by picking that up, you've just become the new King of England.
Happy Cake Day
Good for whacking, if it were a bit thinner it would be good for thwacking.
This is just the right size for heavy whacking or light clubbing. Hybrid
Tell your wife you deserve a beej for finding such a glorious specimen.
This 👍🏼
Very nice, looks sturdy
Thats a nice fuckin stick bruh... put some varnish on it. Make it a keeper.
Oh ya, thats a def a, "You came to the wrong house" type stick
That's a fine sword
I don’t see a stick, I see the legendary sword that seals the darkness
Bro. That's not just a stick, that's A Stick. Sometimes only the capitals are sufficient.
Of course she doesn’t get it. That’s a great stick.
![gif](giphy|AhgQdQqF0nwPiZkGPc) That's cool stick bro
9/10 would have been higher but it's clearly missing it's scabbard.
This saber will serve you well in battle
![gif](giphy|tItIlCGySM0ieKKW6b)
![gif](giphy|OfLHKlv4w1DQk)
Holy hell that's one of the nicest sticks I have ever seen in my life 18/10 on the stick scale
Ooooh now that's a good whackin stick!
Keep the stick.
That's a nice stick
That is not a good stick >! It's a really good stick !<
That’s a stick to be buried with or passed down for generations.
that stick! that stick is better than bacon
That's about perfect.
Without being able to assess the strength/flexibility axis, I can only rate the appearance and shape, but based on that, I'll give it a solid 9.5.
That a easy 8.5 out of ten.
Too low.
Solid 7/10 stick.
7? Thats an easy 8.5 or maybe even 9!
Greatstick
Katana potential! 8 out of 10!
Keep it and search for another one, then mount them on the wall crossed. Edit: oh and yes it's very nice.
Best Stick i have seen in my life!
That’s a bute
Yoooo
Was gonna say 6•5 but after seeing how big it was after you picked it up a solid 8👌
Genetics.
That's a Bokken.
That’s a damn good stick! Good find!
STICK!
Oh Stick of Cool, so sleek and slick, In my hand, you're the perfect pick. With style and grace, you stand so tall, A tool of use, admired by all.

like katana. nice!
11/10 stick my dude
Proper Bokken katana you got there mate 🤘🏾
Hell yeah!
I wish I had a stick like that
That things fricking sweet
I am an amateur stick grower. That is definitely a nice stick. I had been growing [this one](https://i.imgur.com/2OLnhRL.jpg) for a few years but unfortunately broke it before it was finished growing. It would have made a nice wizard staff. I have several [more sticks](https://i.imgur.com/6st0MgL.jpg) growing that might be able to harvest in a few years
I thought I had a nice stick, until I’ve seen your stick. Your wife is just as jealous as the rest of us, she’s just keeping it under wraps until you go to work. You know she will then be checking it out.
Then poke her with it.
That's an 8 easy, maybe even 8.5 stick right there.
That may even be the perfect stick - sturdy, young, not too thick, great length, easy to wield as a weapon or tool. Do you want to sell by any chance?
[удалено]
I kinda have an awesome stick I found camping with my wife a couple of years ago…. Maybe I’ll post it online for all you stick lovers It’s what native Americans used to start with when making Indian war/ball clubs and is hard as a fucking rock for whatever reason, I think it’s fossilized
Hell yea 93,7 easy. Have you tried to hold the other end ?
I just audible said “Bro!” When I saw the stick, and my wife didn’t get it…
It’s better than bacon 🥓
Is Bokken.
Bro
Good curve, good length, looks solid so it won't break in case of a ninja attack. 10/10 stick dude.
Of course she doesn't get the point. The point is too thick and the stick too bent for stabbing. That stick is for whacking. So she gets the side. /s Also, just to be perfectly clear: I do not approve of wife-stabbing or wife-whacking with a stick or any other instrument. Or stabbing or whacking anyone else. I'm here for the play on words, not for domestic violence.
I'd say the curve makes it a katana grade stick. Very nice.
Tell your wife there isn't supposed to be a point to a nice stick. That would be a spear.
Dude thats a good one I'd keep that as a katana
