Does anyone have a reference on the "official" length of a staff?  My
understanding is the 5'6" (marked in feet and the last 6 inches) is
the "official" length in the imperial system.  What is it in metric?
I've heard both 170 cm and 175 cm.

(With the youth learning weights and measures in metric, I prefer to
teach estimation using metric.  I am, so it seems, one of few.)
