I have a feeling these are more common than I want to know...
Bull penis walking stick w/ elk antler handle.

Available for $90 here.

"The most unusual canes. A Bull Penis made into a walking cane and a walking stick. This is a legendary cane that represents power and stamina. Professionally cured by a taxidermy. 100% steralized.
Toroan Makilla is the penis of a large breeding bull. Often Mistaken for old fashioned, knarled, mountain mahogany wood, by its twisted shape, color and natural wood like grain. This toroan makilla cane is the result of centuries of a well guarded secret basque formula, being handed down, generation to generation. The art entails curing , drying and aging along with shaping, trimming and finishing, requiring several months, to produce this rare showpiece. Why the basque imagination shoe to alter the penis of a large bull, will perhaps always remain a mystery. We do know that originally they were cured and dried and used be the elite society as riding quirts. In the Austria-German area they were equipped with a metal, chalk filled, ferrule and used for marking at livestock auctions. They were used throughout Europe by military as swagger sticks. At a later time the wooden dowel was added to acquire rigidity, thus enabling use as a defensive weapon. A metal rod is commonly used today to help with shaping and strength. You now own a unique item rich in background and history. A collectors item, as unique as the bull from whence it came."
