    Here are some hawthorn sticks I squirrelled away a while ago.

    I was down in the neighbours farm cutting up some big old hawthorn trees which make great dense firewood. The odd tree had tipped over in a big blow and survived, putting up new branches off the fallen trunks. I immediately recognised the potential for making walking sticks. It's light but very strong, and you'll never break the handles off these as the grain is running where it needs to.

    I made a nice one for my father-in-law and he rates it, far better than his shop-bought one. The front one in the picture is not far from being varnished.
