Get out and EXPLORE with this handmade hiking stick/ walking stick made from a 100+ year old reclaimed Kentucky tobacco stick! 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, stained black in a hit-n-miss application (hence its name 'Charred') and finished in multiple coats of a satin sheen oil based film finish to protect against moisture and scratches during your journey. This one measures around 51 1/4" x 3/4" x 1" x 1/2" and while lightweight, it's insanely durable. It's not a true dimensional width, but the split stick is predominantly rectangular. The curvatures and bends in its shape were created as the axe splitting it from the log, just gave and took what it wished. The wood features a weathered patina look. Both ends are tapered and the wider portion has a comfortable grip. It is lightweight, yet extremely strong! 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. Feel free to dip the contact point in wax or epoxy for exteme use, if you do not mindthe look. Make it a good one!
