The type of bamboo for lances is "male bamboo" or "Calcutta bamboo".
This type is solid and not hollow and very stiff. The lance heads are numbered for size since bamboo does not grow to one size only. I've read somewhere (can't recall) that sourcing this bamboo was not always easy to obtain for lances. |
