Dueling Canes

I wanted to create something different this time so when I found these two Replicas of General George Washington's Flintlock Hawkins pistols I knew I had found what I wanted. The pistols are all metal and wood but are non-firing. You can still cock the hammer and pull the trigger if you wish but they can never be made to fire. Still, having a pair of Dueling Canes is very unique and they feel great in your hand. The shaft is American Black Walnut which matches the wood in the pistols very well.

    This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.

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.

    There weren't enough stars to properly reflect this experience - Michael was a remarkable professional through this whole project. I had my thoughts and ideas, but he really grasped what I envisioned (even better, in fact). He took great care through the whole process to update me on the progress and ask my opinion about everything, and obviously took his time and put great care into the details of this cane. A man of integrity, patience and professionalism, I'd be thrilled to work with him again in the future or recommend him to anyone for their Custom Made projects!

    Michael, 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.
