hi the lathi is just a stick or switch like riot police carry the world over. ot really clublike.
i am referring specifically to clubs . like the shillelagh in ireland.. although this is just a tourist souvenir.. where as in thailand one could go to any large shopping centre and pick up a khom-fag
so my question is .. what other countires are such weapons still prsent and generally available. not as some exotic matrial arts weapon but just an everyday tool
