May 19May 19 Welcome from the Ozark mountains. Seeing as this thread is 12 years old and the OP has not logged on since April 2018 and some of the responding members are no longer with us you may not get any replies. My knowledge of swagger sticks is very limited as I've not seen one in over 60 years. However my recollection is they were about 36 inches long made from wood with end caps, so a 1/6th scale would only be about 6 inches long. The only swagger stick I saw in person was carried by a Chief Warrant Officer at our Engine-man school's graduation in Groton CT in 1965 and it was tipped with a fired S&W 357 magnum shell casing that was nickle plated. I can’t control the wind. All I can do is adjust my sails. ~Semper Paratus~ USCG 1964-1970
