Is this a real Wolchow Stick? I've read something about these.
What could be the value?
Thanks.

Wolhow sticks
The gates of hell were opened and we accepted the invitation to enter" 26/880 Lance Sgt, Edward Dyke. 26th Bn Northumberland Fusiliers , ( 3rd Tyneside Irish )
1st July 1916
Thought shall be the harder , heart the keener,
Courage the greater as our strength faileth.
Here lies our leader ,in the dust of his greatness.
Who leaves him now , be damned forever.
We who are old now shall not leave this Battle,
But lie at his feet , in the dust with our leader
House Carles at the Battle of Hastings
The problem with Wolchow Sticks is the same with any trench art. They could be period and of the era or they could have been produced this morning. Without provenance, it's nearly impossible to definitively date them. And the fakers who produce such things Know this too.
