The '''bamboo lance''', also known as '''bamboo spear''', '''bamboo pole''', '''bamboo stick''', or simply '''pole''', is a recurring spear in the ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' series. It is a simple length of cut bamboo sharpened to a point. It is cheap, but not very powerful.

Due to text restrictions in the Gameboy Color remake of {{DQ}}, the bamboo pole was renamed to ''Bamboo'' with a picture of a pole beside it.  Additionally, [[Hero (Dragon Quest)|The Hero]] starts his quest with it in the Mobile, Android and iOS versions of the game, though it's unequipped.
