Thank you Sir for your explanations on which materials you are using in process. Made 4 canes for myself, 6 more sticks are drying out now. :)

[@JasonHedrich]

Sounds like you are starting a collection! Keep it up! Thanks for watching

[@AugustCalderaro]

Very beautiful cane, thank you for sharing your labor of love!! Great job, for sure!

[@JasonHedrich]

Thank you very much!

[@jeffmaryward3619]

I always enjoy watching your builds.....have used some of the techniques you use on my own carvings. Look forward to the next one!

[@JasonHedrich]

great to hear, I'm glad you are able to apply some of the techniques in the videos! makes me happy!

Hey Jason. Great turn out for sure! You also made the right call on the cut-off. Thanks. Hope all is well.

[@JasonHedrich]

Thank you very much! Yes, had to take a chance on the design change and luckily it worked! Thanks for the feedback

I am a huge believer in the sanding the labor does pay off and shows amazing. I was worried with the cut off on the handle, but wow what a great grain pattern. awesome work as usual. the spiral idea has me thinking right now.

[@JasonHedrich]

Thank you. Yes it was a gamble to cut off the end but what a wild grain inside. I was getting bored with standard spirals so I wanted to try something different. It worked pretty well I think.

Beautiful looking stick, love this type of content. Thanks for your efforts with the channel, Chesterfield England...

Thank you for your support!

Another awesome video! I really liked the "Leap of faith" at 4:26 min. I liked the initial handle despite the fact that it was on the big side and aggressive! A great self-defense tool though! The cut on the handle revealed the beauty of the wood. I look forward to the next upload!

[@JasonHedrich]

Yes, you have to follow the gut instinct now and then. It was good round, but I like the cut section better. A more balanced look. Thanks for your support

Thanks for your kind words and support! I appreciate it

I really love this one, Jason! Roots are a very underutilized part of the tree when it comes to stick making. Well worth the extra effort though, in my opinion. Every time I post pics of my latest root stick on the walking stick forum, there is at least one comment along the lines of "I never knew roots could make such great handles."

[@JasonHedrich]

I agree, beautiful grain and the fact that the curve in it is natural, it is much stronger as the grain is in the correct orientation! Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it!

[@danawrigleywalkingstickand5677]

@@JasonHedrich Yes. The exact reasons I love root handles. Downside is you occasionally run into a rock.

Nice project. Excellently done. Im curious about a walking staff/guide staff I once saw on a History Channel program. The show was about ginsengers and one fella had a wooden staff, a bit taller than shoulder height, with a mini shovel as a head piece. Where can a man fund such a thing? Thanks J.

[@JasonHedrich]

Thank you! Not sure about the staff, I'd have to look into a bit to understand it all. But nothing is impossible

[@martinadams6804]

Is teak oil the permanent finish? Does it need to be occasionally reapplied? I've never used it before and was wondering if the finish will tend to wear off, particularly where the hand rests on the handle.

[@JasonHedrich]

its a penetrating oil, much like danish oil and tung oil. It hardens in the wood not on it like a polyurethane finish. you can reapply it as needed to maintain the shine, and its easy to fix up scratches too.
