50in Crooked Walking Stick Wizard Staff, and 35 similar items

50'' Crooked Wood Wizard Walking Staff, OVAL grip 4 Med to XL Hands, Natural Wooden Diamond Willow Hiking Stick Great as a handheld prop for theater and Halloween witch and warlock costumes, for hiking or camping trips, as well as every day use to help you get around, taking pressure off your knees, hips, etc.. Make a great substitute for a walking cane, too. HAND GRIP AT TOP 6" is best. It can definitely be held below that, but it gets wider, and it's less smooth as there are indented diamonds that the fingers fall into nicely and actually act as perfect natural finger grips; HOWEVER, we can often sand it down to make it thinner or more round so it fits your hand size better, at no charge. PLEASE NOTE: This isn't round, but is rather oval, which fits just as perfectly in the palm and grip of one's hand as a round staff does, if not better. ALSO, there is a gorgeous but deep, bumpy diamond starting 3 in. from the top, on one one half of the stick, which acts as a grip itself, (the other half is flat and comfy for the palm to rest on) helping you hold your stick even if you're sweating or it's raining. HAS CURVES: This walking staff has a few exaggerated curves, making it extra intriguing, but the stick stands straight for the most part and works great. (I use one all the time and can veryify that crooked hiking sticks work great and have marvelously charming character.) I use a walking cane DAILY (or hiking staff for woods trompsing), and have had the same hiking staff and cane for several years, and I take pride in making sure you get a beautiful, strong and sturdy walking staff to last for many years! ~~~ Crafted with blood (mosquito juice), sweat and tears of love. ~~~ SPECIFICATIONS ____________________ Height: 50 in. Top diameter: 1.5 in. x 1-1/8 in. (oval) Bottom diameter: 1 in. Weight: 1 lbs. 2.5 oz. (without packaging) Diamonds: 17 Item# CFW745 Hand Crafted in USA MAX WT: 250-350 lbs. The hiking stick in the first 5 photos is the one you will get. This walking staff is a OOAK (one of a kind) item made from native northern Minnesota diamond willow tree, and handcrafted by me, a local, experienced artisan. __ Sustainably harvested in northern MN. __ Main bark removed by hand. __ Dried/cured for several months, naturally by air __ Meticulously sanded. __ Given 5 coats of clear polyurethane. __ Comes with new black rubber protector boot. WE CAN SHORTEN, at no charge. We'll happily cut it down for you. Just let us know the length you want. Measure twice and we'll cut once (then sand and coat with clear poly). SIZE GUIDE: For FLAT terrain, or rolling hills and groomed trails, a walking staff should be about 4-6" above the elbow, or a few inches below the shoulder. For HILLY terrain, a stick that's shoulder height or even a few inches above the shoulder is often preferred to help when descending. ABOUT MAX WEIGHT: 250-350 lbs. _________________________________________ I'm guessing at wt. limit. I'm "only" 200 lbs. and test each stick just by trying to bend it to make sure it's sturdy, but I don't run and jump with it. Wood does age, so be sure to inspect your gear regularly before use. IF YOU NEED A STICK THAT WILL HOLD MORE WEIGHT: Please message us and let us know the weight limit you need, and your height. 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. DISCLAIMER: Since this is wood, and we're not a factory, I make no guarantees about the future condition of this walking stick, but CAN GUARANTEE it was strong without any large cracks when I harvested, cured, coated, listed, and packed it for shipping after it sells, inspecting it at each step along the way. However, PLEASE INSPECT ALL YOUR EQUIPMENT before each use to make sure no cracks or weaknesses have developed over time. Stay safe! NATURAL MARKINGS ________________________ No stains, paints or colors added__just fives coats of clear poly finish. The natural colors are spectacular, looking so much better in person than I'm able to capture with photos. DIAMONDS: Covered with an exceptional array of diamonds, with all sorts of wonderful twisting curves and a variety of tan, caramel, dark brown and reddish brown colors. This stick has a few particularly deep diamonds (difficult to capture in photos) that are beautiful alone, and perfect for embedding more stones or charms into them, if you wish. RAILING: Has a bit of highly coveted, unique and rare semi_railing effect, where the diamonds become one with the wood and twist and turn the wood due to spalding/spalting. Some "diamonds" even stick out like an ear, where you could pinch both sides, and maybe lace or pierce something through them. INSECT MARKINGS: Has a few insect and/or worm hole markings on this stick. Worm and other insect markings are actually coveted, as they are more rare than diamonds themselves. They help create a unique design, character to the stick, and add another dimension to the story of how efficient nature works. The worms or insects have long disappeared since I dry my sticks for several months, then sand and coat with poly. A very unique piece with great character.
