Old Fashioned Horse Measuring Walking Stick Cane

Refurbished, and obviously used - probably has lots of stories to tell. Mine came with a glass level that's obviously a replacement since I'm sure the original was broken or missing. If you're looking to add something charming to your barn, this is a great item! If you're looking for something new and unused, get something else.

I'm not sure where these were found that the seller is able to have enough to sell a lot of them. This is a vintage measuring cane. I always thought they were neat and always wanted one.I purchased it knowing that being vintage it may not be as functional as I wanted. I can use it, I just have to be careful when I do so, especially since I don't have a solid floor to use. I was really hoping it would be functional as well as a conversation starter, however I really don't feel comfortable using it with my younger horses, which is who I really need it for.I love my measuring cane. It's unique, it can be used effectively I just choose not to. It will continue to be a treasure.I have recently been able to find the modern measuring sticks and have ordered one since it'll be more effective for my squirrelly youngsters. I won't be retiring it any time soon. I'm thinking of getting a cane tip for it and using it as a walking cane.A wonderful find.

The one we saw also had a level in it so you could see if you had it level at the equine's withers. Quality was typical of China--o.k.

The price

Very old, no indication it was used on the Amazon ad. Was sticky to the touch until I wiped it off. The numbers were worn off, so you couldn‘t read them. The little level on it was missing. Not useful for a horse measuring stick, which is what it was intended for, and why I bought it.

Product damaged, due to description being vague on shipping docket customs had opened and inspected, damage to measure rod within cane.

Very cool, fun measuring stick in a cane. My first one came with a broken bubble in the level and I had a very quick response from the seller and a quick replacement. Good experience.

my husband takes his "cane" to all the horse shows and barns. People love to have the horses height taken. Good conversation starter.
