    A Shillelagh is a club or walking stick that has a large knob at the end and has an Irish theme. Thus this is a Shillelagh. I bought this in the late 70s so it is at least as old as that. There used to be an earing in the right ear but it disappeared long ago.
    A day late for Saint Patrick's Day but close enough I think.

      I love it. My dad carved his out of hickory and it was always beside what ever chair he was sitting in. He saw it as a defensive instrument, a walking aid and an educational aid if you didn't listen to him. He always said he didn't believe in hitting a dumb animal but you gotta get their attention.
