Have you tried " highland horn" used to get some lovely , sweet chestnut of them .

Highland Horn and Keith Pickering (The Stick Man) are both out of the size of blackthorn that you require at the moment. 35mm is pretty thick for blackthorn and whilst you'll get the length, you might struggle a bit with thickness.

If you do manage to locate one, don't worry if it's not straightened as once seasoned, they are very easy to straighten using either steam or a hot air blower (paint stripper type).

Hopefully derbyduck above may come up trumps.

Failing that, it's out with the pruning saw this winter.

Good luck anyway.
