This is one very unusual walking stick. Known as a Valaski,Valasku,Volkos and Ciupaga. It has seen some use but is in very good condition. Both sides of the axe head are engraved with ethnic scenes. The head measures 6" long and has a cutting edge of just over 3" The axe head is shaped to make a comfortable grip. The handle has a spike on the bottom that can be covered with a cork. It measures 38" in overall length. This is not a tourist show piece. This was made for use. I am unsure of the origin. It could be Hungarian. The price is $175.00 plus shipping with delivery confirmation and insurance. Email or pm me for a shipping quote to your area code.
PRICE IS NOW $150.00 PLUS SHIPPING.
FINAL PRICE DROP $120.00 PLUS SHIPPING TO CONUS.

Is the edge of this sharpened or can/should it be?? Seems like I remember seeing something like this before but don't know anything about the intended purpose. Is it for cutting or self defense or....????

I'm interested, just don't know anything about this type of item.

The edge certainly can be sharpened. It is meant as a weapon or emergency survival tool.
