Solid English Oak Crook (Carving) Stick Handle Blank
English Oak wood is an excellent choice for walking stick handles due to its strength, density, durability, and rot resistance, providing a sturdy, long-lasting, and reliable companion for everyday use. It’s beautiful, distinctive grain offers a pleasant aesthetic, and the wood's natural density makes it highly resistant to impact, splintering, and damage from insects and fungi. Oak's hardwearing properties ensure it can withstand the demands of daily use and even look better with age. All wood used is UK sourced and UK grown.
Product Description
A crafted handle blank made from natural wood enabling the buyer to finish. Each handle is finished 'oversized' to allow for waste material to be removed and attach to a shank up to an inch and a quarter in thickness.
How to use
Simple tools and a bit of work will soon have your handle ready to fit to a suitable shank.
I recommend and use a traditional peg and socket joint. I do not recommend or use threaded rods. Wood is a natural material and should be allowed to move and flex. Using a threaded rod does not allow natural movement of the wood therefore is liable to cause breakout.
