Need Rattan!

Post by cristofre fortescu »

I am looking for light weight, good rattan, but it is hard to find as many of you know. I couldnt even find good rattan at gulf wars. Has anyone ordered any on line and if so were you satisfied with what they recieved? If so, could you please share the website.

Thanks in advance,

Chris Fortescu

On the good side i didn't break a stick at Gulf Wars! Course during the battles i didn't get to swing a whole lot. We ended up paced so tight it was all shield wrestling.
