metal drum sticks

my teacher suggested i get some metal drum sticks to do excersizes with to strengthen my left hand but all i can find are signature ahead sticks that are advertised as "negligible weight differences". i assume he wants me to use heavier sticks and that to me sounds like the weight will be fairly close to a wood stick. anybody know of a brand or model that is a heavier metal stick?

nevermind, shoulda searched for an hour and ten minutes instead of just an hour........
