Bamboo looks cute and artistic, and it seems to be traditional.. They can be beautiful hanging on the wall as a decoration.
Maybe if I needed something extra long to reach from the deck of a boat high off the water, bamboo might be a cheap and reasonable material?
Personally, I would prefer the strength of something like a shovel handle or other tool-quality hardwood.
I wonder how "Calcutta Bamboo" ever became a popular standard in the first place? It's only bamboo.
Bamboo fishing rods once had their time and place too, but I think that time has passed.
