Blackberry natural shafts?

<< < (2/2)

TimBo:
Blackberry is going to be too light and pithy.  I cut some once thinking it was wild rose, and was very disappointed!

Digital Caveman:
The one upside is that the shafts have preinstalled points >:D.  Their bad enough when harvesting the fruit; I don't relish harvesting them for the sticks.

Hawkdancer:
Not only too pithy, the darned seeds stick in my teeth!  But they do make good pie - the berries, that is, especially with heated with ice cream on top!  However, I prefer blueberries for pie and red osier for shafts! >:D

they make good hand friction fire spindles (take off thorns first  (lol) )
