Handmade Heritage
This traditional Hickory Crook Handle Walking Stick is not just made, it is grown! The ancient technique of coppicing involves cutting back the source trees about a metre back from the ground, stimulating the growth of new shoots which grow to an appropriate diameter for a walking stick.
Rustic Appearance
Often used for tool handles, hickory is highly shock-resistant, making this stick wonderful for coping with rocky terrain. The signature curvature of its crook handle is both attractive and practical, allowing the stick to be hooked around the arm when not in use. The Hickory Crook Handle Walking Stick is a superb companion for a variety of countryside pursuits.
What Is The Diameter of The Hickory Crook Walking Stick?
The Diameter of the Hickory Crook is 25mm at the handle tapering down to the ferrule end 19mm.
Rubber Ferrule
This walking stick is supplied with a rubber ferrule as standard. Ideal for firmer ground, this style of ferrule absorbs shock and helps to reduce fatigue in the hand.
