Market Stick Style Walking Cane
Here is a Market Stick style walking cane. The Market Stick Handle is an English style walking stick that is more common with a natural shank with the bark on but this one was made specifically for a customer that wanted a larger area to grip than a pistol grip style handle. This cane was made from Cherry and features a Polished Buffalo Horn spacer.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I am a woodworker who specializes in custom walking sticks and canes with a focus on traditional English and Irish style walking sticks, many times with my own added twist.
With each item I aim to incorporate the uniqueness of the wood I am using and capture that beauty in the finish product. My walking sticks and canes are made to provide support for rugged hiking, stability in walking or for the collector. I make a variety of other wood products including jewelry and keepsake boxes, tobacco pipes, props and "magic wands".
All items are handmade to the client's specification, so if you see an item you like or would like something completely unique please reach out. I look forward to working with you to create a unique and beautiful piece that you will cherish for years to come.

For Custom cane5.0Both the experience and the result of working with Mr Demers were exactly what I hoped for. The cane he made for me follows the model of one or two he has previously made, but the woods are quite different; he and I worked together to choose them, with my indicating the effect I wanted and suggesting some woods that might achieve it, and his employing his expertise and aesthetic sense to give me further practical options. He was scrupulous about consulting me and explaining why, given the specific pieces of wood at his disposal, our original plans had best be altered. The cane that I saw, first in photographs he sent and then in its actual glory, fits my desires to a T. It's lovely to look at, comfortable to hold and walk with, and dressy to the exact degree that I wished it to be. It was also remarkably reasonable in price. Would I work with Mr Demers again? Absolutely. I only wish I had an appropriate project in mind right now, so that I could do so at once.
Let me add to this enthusiastic recommendation that it's free of any personal bias: I did not know Mr Demers, other than by images posted on custommade, nor do I know him outside the context of this project. I also don't know anyone else for whom he has worked or is working.

For Wizard Wands For Harry Potter Fans5.0I bought the custom made wand for my Harry Potter series lover niece. The wand and custom packaging was nothing less than perfection. Thank you for another memorable Christmas for my family.

For Wand4.8I am verry happy with product I received. It was just as I imagined and more. I am in general pleased about the whole experience. There was great communication and we were on the same page from the beginning. I know that the next time I need a similar job done, I'll come straight to Rafe Demers.

For Shillelagh Walking Sticks5.0Based on the quality of the cane I received months earlier, a friend of mine ordered a Shillelagh Walking Stick. The following is his dictated comment in review of Rafe Demers:
"A fine piece of craftsmanship, completely authentic and handcrafted with care. This cane fits me perfectly and I will enjoy it for many years to come."
