48" Wood Walking Stick with Handle, MAX WT 150 lb, Unique Diamond Willow, USA

Product Info

A thin but sturdy and light weight wooden walking stick with 550 paracord rope handle. Hand grip is very comfy and fits most adult hand sizes.

NOTE Re HANDLE: We can change the color of the hand grip or wrist strap at no extra charge. See 'Upgrades' below.

Covered with a few naturally occurring wooden diamonds created by nature, with a variety of reddish brown hues, making this ''Diamond Willow'' wood walking stick extra unique.

No stains, paints or colors added__just fives coats of clear poly finish.

HAS CURVES, making it extra intriguing, but it does come back to center and works great as a hiking staff or walking cane. (I use one all the time and can verify that crooked hiking sticks work great and have marvelously charming character.)

SIZING GUIDE
________________
♦ GENERAL RULE: approx. shoulder height
♦ FLAT-ISH TERRAIN (groomed trails/slowly rolling hills): couple inches below shoulder, or 4-6" above the bend in the elbow
♦ HILLY/STEEP TERRAIN: a couple inches above the shoulder

But preferences vary, and not all bodies are proportioned the same (eg, shoulder to elbow length).

If you've never had a walking stick, try practicing on a broom stick to see what feels comfortable first.

WE CAN SHORTEN, at no charge.

ABOUT MAX WEIGHT: 150 lbs.
___________________________________
This can probably hold a little more weight, but I like to err on the side of caution. I'm 200 lbs. and test each stick to make sure it's sturdy and doesn't bend, and though this stick seems strong and sturdy, it's just a tad bit thinner than usual.

IF YOU NEED A STICK THAT WILL HOLD MORE WEIGHT: Please message us and let us know the weight limit you need.
♦ I'd be happy to guide you toward sticks in our shop that are thicker, OR
♦ we most likely have one such stick in stock but just haven't listed it yet. Or
♦ I could cut a few inches off a walking stick you like, as that always makes it stronger.

HAND GRIP
______________
SPECS: Is approx. 0.5"-0.75" wide and approx. 4.5'' in length, made of 550 paracord. It can be removed if needed, as it has 7 inner threads and has many emergency survival uses.

COLOR: I have red on there right now, but can add any other cord paracord instead, at no charge. Just message me ASAP what color you want. See examples and color choices here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/568068376/hand-grip-upgrade-only-stick-must-b

WRIST STRAP
________________
SPECS: The paracord wrist strap is made of about 15-18 ft. of 550 paracord, and is approx. 11 in. when open, and 5.5 in. when closed. It can be made wider or smaller if you adjust to fit, then tie a knot in the cord to prevent the loops from cinching down.

TASSELS: Has extra long tassels you can add beads or charms to if you wish, then cut yourself after you adjust to fit. Burn the ends immediately after cutting, then blow out the flame right away to form a seal. This prevents inner cords from riding up the paracord.

COLOR: I have black over camo on there right now, but can add any other color paracord or suede wrist strap instead, at no charge. Just message me ASAP what color you want. See examples and color choices here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/997046942

** If you request a different color lanyard, please be sure to SPECIFY if you're choosing paracord or leather when you message me to tell me the color you want.

Note Re: SUEDE LEATHER LANYARD: At approx. 2/8"-3/8" wide, the leather strap is approx. 1/2 as thin as the paracord strap, so the leather strap would totally fit through the hole in this stick.

ENGRAVING UPGRADE (OPTIONAL)
__________________________________________
** Depending on length of engraving, this upgrade may add and extra 1-2 days processing. Let me know if you're in a hurry though, and I'll let you know if I can accommodate a quicker engraving.

Wood burned engraving is done by hand, not by a machine. See approx. 2nd to last photo for examples.

You can add up to 30 characters.

TO ADD MORE THAN 30 CHARACTERS, Please message me first to make sure there's enough room to put what you want engraved. If you're absolutely sure what you want will fit, as you can see from the photos what parts have the lighter main wood without darker diamond markings, then order from the following listing for the extra characters ___>>>
