As long as it's not lead, I should be able to manage. The problem with that is that, unless you soak it in mana for a long time- like, on the order of years- metal is generally an incredibly poor conductor for magic. There are specific types of metal that that's not true for, but those are too rare and precious to make a staff from anyway.
Except for my grandpa, but I've never been able to figure out the theory behind his spellblade bullshit anyway. A metal sword should not be able to do that.
