Project Information

I carved this cane from some materials that my grandpa gave me before he passed. He and I shared a love of woodworking, and he left me with quite a few supplies and tools. He liked to make canes, but they were nothing like my whimsical style. This cane is made of sassafras and the horn is from a cow. I carved the hitchhikers in by hand, and did a little painting to accentuate some of the details. This piece is 42" long and around 2" or so thick. I'm pretty happy with how this piece turned out, and am currently working on more wood spirit walking sticks. I think ol' granddad would really love this piece :)

Beautiful carvings, I like the way the top guy's beard flows down around the cane.
