You could also take a look at these guys: http://www.oldeshillelagh.com/

I believe one of our members liked them so much, he bought two

That would be me. :-)

I got the 37" one below, and liked it so much that I then got the hiking staff length one shown in my profile pic.

I am well-aware that the polypropalene sticks are synthetic. Price seemed to be a consideration. Real blackthorn shillelaghs are quite pricey. Thanks for biting my head off, guys.

Madadh, I don't own the shillelagh but I do own their hand-and-half sword trainer. Good quality. Very rugged..stronger than any wood out there.

They don't look bad (I have one), especially for the price. The polypropylene is heavier than blackthorn but is certainly strong and tough. Really, the only thing I find not to like is that the "wood color" on the "root knob" is just a very thin veneer that chips off about as easily as an eggshell.
