I found this bamboo bank stick at a car boot sale, i bought it along with another which were inside an old leatherette bag. Does anyone know if its a home made item or would they have been bought from a tackle shop. I have never seen one before, not a bad buy for 50p!!

The brass rest is threaded and removes from the collar.

There's a shaped spike to push into the ground, it has a weathered patina and looks to have had a few coats of paint that have worn away over the years. I have used it a few times, much to the distain of my friends!! Ha!! I thought you guys might like to see it and perhaps might know a little about it other than the obvious, i have never seen one before, im guessing its a rare item.
