The Twisted Hickory Walking Stick is our top-selling stick, and for good reason. Hickorys unparalleled strength has made it a wood of choice for tool handles, bows, and baseball bats. Couple that strength with hickorys innate beauty -- accented with our distinctive twist -- and the result is a wildly popular walking stick that is able to withstand even the most rigorous hiking treks. From the time we receive the carefully chosen raw hickory in our central Texas location, we take every step necessary to ensure a final product that lives up to our precise standard of quality. Each staff is carefully selected, sanded, and then sprayed with a protective clear coat lacquer finish, resulting in a unique, practical, highly attractive walking staff. The Twisted Hickory Walking Stick comes in one of four sizes: 41-inches (primarily a childs size), 48-inches, 55-inches, and 58-inches. The staff also comes with a standard rubber ferrule for a firm, secure grip on virtually any surface. For serious hiking, the rubber ferrule can also be upgraded to a spike ferrule or combination spike ferrule per your choice. Like all of our finely crafted walking sticks and canes, the Twisted Hickory Walking Stick is made in the USA by our skilled craftsmen using the highest quality wood and time-tested methods.
