chatanga1 Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 which is a good type of bamboo stick to get for a barsha, and where can you get them from in the uk? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SURYADEV Posted October 17, 2012 Report Share Posted October 17, 2012 I dont believe bamboo is an ideal material for a spear. It has way too much flexibility and wobble when thrown over a distance. Thereby reducing its accuracy. Something that is more rigid is better. Though if you just want it as a show-piece then try some martial arts shops that sell chinese/japanese bamboo longstaff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SURYADEV Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Then you may want to try the martial arts shops. Some sell some cool looking longstaffs, with patterns burnt into the wood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
