This cane is topped with a cast metal eagle claw that fits comfortably in the hand. When you are ready to stop and rest, you turn the cane over and the eagle claw handle becomes a stand and your cane waits for you when you are ready to go again. This is a unique cane that is sure to get attention. The shaft is one inch Black Walnut. The shaft is plain but I could easily carve in a name, a quote or anything else the user wishes.

I retired from the USAF after 28 years and now I make canes, walking sticks, jewelry and art pieces full time. The Quotable Walking Stick is a concept that I started. I find rare, unusual, and/or antique items to make into walking stick handles. Then I find an appropriate quote from literature, movies, music or elsewhere that I feel compliments the user.
Quotes have always been an important part of my life. It is comforting to know that others we admire think along the same lines as we do. I hope you will find one that speaks to you.

For Custom Masonic Walking CanesMichael, was absolutely wonderful to work with! We asked for an initial sample custom made cane and we are extremely pleased with the final product. We will be working with Michael to produce a large quantity as a fundraising project for our non-profit organization. -deb c.

For Abaris CanesHonestly, all around great guy. He helped me out with a project in a field I know nothing about and was very understanding of my poor communication. He finished the project early and shipped our canes out across the country individually bubble wrapped. Can't hope for much more in a person than that.

For Walking stickEverything these reviews say are spot-on. Michael was fantastic--I approached him on this site about a walking stick I wanted to have made for my mother this Christmas. I had a few ideas kicking around, but time was tight, because I got around to it later than I should have. And yet, not only did Michael make my vision happen--and honestly, he made it better than I'd had in my head--but he did it in barely more than a week's time (including planning), chose a stunning piece of wood, and kept me posted before he made any major moves. And he was so nice throughout the entire process. I have been incredibly happy with the process and the end product, and I can't recommend him enough.
ALSO--it gets even better: since I had asked if there was any way that I could get the bird's beak painted, he actually pulled his wife, a painter, onto the project too, and she did a beautiful job painting not just the beak, but the whole bird. They're like a power crafting duo, and I can't thank them enough for making this walking stick happen.

For CaneIdeal maker to work with. Timely, responsible and, even though I was finnicky, entirely patient the entire time. Great experience!
