This is a lighter, thinner birch root staff. It stands 71-1/4" tall and the small end of the shaft is only 1" in diameter and it goes up to 1-1/2" below the roots. This one had to be stripped with a drawkinfe, hence it is full of tooling facets. Like most of the others listed this is a raw material for you to customize. It weighs only 2#3ozs. The shaft on this one has a few slight crooks in it but it is relatively straight compared to many others. It does have a creepy root if that's the theme of your costume. (ufws349)
