Is the bamboo stuck on, or does it slide?

It can be moved a bit, but this could be just because the bamboo has an age split in one place. Also there is a sort of thin sleeve underneath which looks like it has been there a long time. Difficult to say whether the bamboo was originally meant to be fixed or to slide.
