Ashplant

/ˈæʃplænt/ noun

Definition

A walking stick or cudgel made from the wood of an ash tree, traditionally used in Ireland.

Etymology

Compound of ash (the tree, Old English æsc) and plant (Old English plante meaning 'shoot' or 'cutting'). This Irish term emerged from the practical tradition of craftspeople selecting straight ash saplings for tool-making.

Kelly Says

The ashplant became so iconic in Irish culture that it appears in literature as a symbol of Irish identity—even the word was slang for a trusty weapon in Irish street culture!
