Get out and EXPLORE with this handmade hiking stick/ walking stick made from a 100+ year old reclaimed Kentucky tobacco stick! Named 'Goldie' for it's golden undertones, this stick is best suited for those 6ft tall and over. This stick was hand-split from a log over a century ago and used in agricultural production. It was capable of holding 4-5 green (wet) tobacco plants as they were hung to dry in the barn rafters. The stick is made from White Oak, which is known for its strength and durability. This piece was gently sanded and finished in multiple coats of a hand-rubbed, oil based film finish to protect against moisture and scratches during your journey. It is a medium brown color with golden highlights. Some photos were taken in full sun and other in partial sun. If you'd like more photos, just ask. This one measures around 55 1/4" x 7/8" x 7/8". It's not a true dimensional width, as the split stick has some portions that are rectangular, triangular and square. The curvatures and bends in shape were created as the axe splitting it from the log, just gave and took what it wished. The wood features: curvatures, bends and knots. The intended handle portion is a tapered end, yet you can use it however most comfortable for you (with the bend near the bottom or near the top). It is lightweight, yet extremely strong! While many choose to use these sticks for display purposes only, feel free to put it to work! Free 1 year warranty on craftmanship and I will refinish it at no cost within first year (buyer pays shipping). Follow the paths of your elders or cut a new trail with your own handmade walking stick enriched with agricultural history!
*No rubber feet or boots are included with our walking sticks. The nicks and dings you collect on the bottom of the stick tell the story of your journey. Make it a good one!
