This is a stick that was on the side of the road growing for years and being hacked down at the top by the hedge cutters which allowed it to grow thick. A great St. Patrick\'s Day gift. This is a strongfairly heavy stick which can be used for support or defence. All sticks are cut in the middle of winter and then dried for atleast a year before being finished to a high degree and an Irish coin is then mounted to the tip.These are the original Blackthorn walking sticksfrom West Clare Ireland with the coin in the ferrule. A real heirloom from the Emerald Isle.
The length of a walking stick is measured from the floor to your wrist but I like it to be an inch longer. Shipping charges have been going up every three months and usually cost more then I charge. We ship regular postal service and it usually takes 2 to 3 weeks to get to you. On unusual conditions such as last years east coast storms, shipping took 4 to 5 weeks. All scars are filled in and finished smooth to the original color of purplish/brownish/mahogany. Most pictures are taken prior to the final finish being applied which comes out to a very smooth marbling finish. Special orders are always welcome.
