I, personally, loved "The Japanese Silky Rooster Wand". Whether the kid knew it not, there's some power in that one. :)
My trad doesn't use wands, much. The only time I recall use of a wand is the priapic wand at the Spring sabbat. Since I can't carve to save my life, I'm planning on buying one, sort of. What I want isn't exactly intended to be used as a wand. *waggles eyebrows*
