6 Steps to Making a Walking or Hiking Stick Trim the stick. If there are small branches protruding from the stick, cut them with a hand saw as close as possible to Remove the bark. Some people recommend removing the bark right away to cut down on the possibility of insect infestation. Sand the.
If using a pipe make sure it is even with or slightly above the end of the stick. When using a cap make sure the stick is bottomed out in the fitting. Carefully wipe off any adhesive which has squeezed out. Set the piece aside to dry.
Properly Finished. Once the glue has dried, it is time to finish the DIY walking stick.As you can see, there aren’t that many steps involved in making a walking stick. You basically need to pick a suitable piece of wood, trim and shave it, dry the wood, let your imagination run wild with the design, and apply several layers of coating.
Making a hiking stick will require tools. A fisherman needs a hook or a net, a farmer needs a hoe, a writer needs a pen and paper or a computer and in this case, you will need a machete, a pocket knife and a file. These are very important ones but to add more polish, you can use sand paper, paint thinner, a rag or a handkerchief.
Just above the grip area, drill a 1/4-inch hole for a wrist loop. Smooth the surface of the stick first with coarse, then fine, sandpaper.To remove residual sawdust, wipe the stick with a rag dipped in paint thinner. Decorate the stick with carvings, wood burnings, paintings, emblems or bear bells. If the wood is still green, place it in a warm, dry location to cure for at least 2 weeks, and rotate it often to prevent.
Use a cotton cloth to apply the oil. Allow it to dry properly after you use the oil on the cane. Next you can apply the floor paste wax which needs to be rubbed on and then buffed with a cloth, so that there is dull shine on the cane.
These are the simple steps that you will need to follow if you want to learn to make a wooden walking stick.Soak it in water, tuck one end under the first wrap, continue wrapping to create a 5” or 6” long hand grip, then tuck the loose end under the final wrap and pull it tight. When the cord dries it’ll get even tighter.
Wet some sash cord, wrap it tightly around your walking stick, then let it dry.Pick a section of branch or stem that is long enough. As a gauge, measure from the ground to your outstretched hand when your arm is bent. Measure with your upper arm pointing down and your forearm horizontal or parallel to the ground. Then add a few extra inches.
Similarly, they make excellent, if heavy, walking sticks. Maple is not only a strong wood, it is abrasion resistant, so it will last for many miles on the trail. Many male species will work, although ashleaf and silver maples have somewhat weaker wood than red or sugar maples. An additional benefit of maple is that it accepts stain readily and.To keep your walking stick in prime condition, make it a habit to oil or wax it at the end of every season of use.
If you use it a lot then you may want to oil or wax more frequently. A good walking stick should last your lifetime and beyond. Craft your own walking stick and start making your own family memories.http://www.woodlands.co.uk Making a walking stick How to make a walking stick from Hazel.

I like a 1″ hardwood stick, it’s light and easy to carry. Never thought of one until I went into thickets looking for moss. I was tripping over Greenberg vines, and cut a small sapling to beat them out of the way. Later that day I found it was a good digging tool and kept this old cripple from falling down on uneven ground. Now I plan to make one with a fork in the top, so when I come across a rattler, I can either flick it out of the way, or pin it’s head to the ground and use it for a meal.
I don’t varnish my stuck, I sand it down, stain it, then take it down to 1,000 grit to make it shiny and smooth, then put a coat of Linseed oil over it. Eventually varnish will crack and flake, then you have to sand it back down to refinish it. Linseed oil doesn’t do that, and if you want to shine it up again, just put another coat on it.
Remember, it’s just a stick to work with, not a piece of furuture. Mine shines like fine furniture with easy maintainence.
Man! This walking stick is thick! Little John style https://youtu.be/DX_x81c8EiE?t=39
the video strikes me as fine, it is the whole conversation that throws me
why would anyone plan to carry a stick everywhere they go?
Why would you even bring up the being sexist thing. you are talking about a walking stick, not some BS California crap. A man hikes with a walking stick and sometimes a woman does too. Not anything sexist about.
…IF you are in the very WRONG circumstances of walking on ice…do NOT ever break it w/ you stick! I think what he means is IF you’re walking on unknown terrain and powdery snow you can check for depth so as not to walk off into a snow drift.
Interesting….. Thank you for sharing. I like all the walking sticks you showed!
As always, good stuff snake! My suggestion is instead of stain use torch to burn wood in tactical look, then matte clear coat. Otherwise that stick is great tool. Thanks bro
Nice video, but it sounds a little like you are trying to justify why a grown man would use a walking stick instead of modern trekking poles. Me? I just like sticks. I never grew out of it. I was trekking with one kind or another since I was six. My current walking staff served me for over twenty years now. Which brings me to the next point: You don’t use those very often, do you? The first two at least. They are too clean and the foot on them look pristine. I lost about an inch or two of my staff just from abrasion in the rough tarrain. Good thing that someone is still using the old ways:)
Have you got a sore throat? Maybe wait till you feel better before making a vid. Hope you feel better soon
Nice work on the walkin stick. Like the color choices too. Good ideas.
Thinking would want walking stick longer when going down hills. If slip, do not want end of the stick around chest where would hit your ribs and mess you.
What kind of survival knife was it for the handle great idea.
Interesting info. Thanks for taking the time to share. Good production quality too. Check out my channel Survival Bros. Cheers. Cam
Why do all Americans have to be so defensive?
everything from a. 22 bullet to a stick is described as a defensive weapon.
Relax not everyone is out to get you. I was enjoying your video till that point.
thanks for being politically correct about the sexiest part. we all know what you mean, and who cares about the people how have the real staff in there ass

Krik, I just read this last night. Then I saw your video today, I am now convinced that walking sticks are a valuable piece of gear.
I dig your channel! As far as the dark walnut stain, I did some staining of gear this past year…and the first coat is supposed to dry, then light sand, apply a second coat, and wipe off the excess stain if it hasn’t dried completely after an hour or two. The stain I used may have a faster drying time than what yours had…but I got the darkness I liked…and applied some finishing wax afterward and buffed that off…so it kinda looks like same color as walnut gun stocks…which is what I wanted. Not all my handles stained evenly…since I kinda rushed the couple dozen objects I was staining at the same time. I recently posted a video of my “collection” of odds and ends tools if you want to take a look. I may make a similar hiking stick like you did…that metal L-shape on the end could definitely have some uses!!
i am not saying anything is wrong here
but i will say that fitting a cane to “old folks”, the elbow should be at about 25 to 30 degrees, because that is where their musculature has greatest advantage
[about a 10″ difference, than you preach]
so far, i find them for rough down hills and toss them aside
i am looking at mono-pods and what you’ve said here is good food for thought
I have a question is specifically for Stony. Do you use a trekking pole or hiking stick? I ask because I found that it is a pain to have a walking staff or anything really while using a camera. The delay to pull up the camera isn’t a deal breaker (altho I do tend to carry my camera in hand at all times out of fear of “missing the shot” but even when I carry the camera at the side and such. Balancing the staff (poles seem even harder) and getting the shot and not dropping anything (scaring off the wildlife) is a trick that I haven’t learned. Is there a system you use? Or is the “system” more like mine, leave the staff at home or in the car. With my knees, I would like to try trekking poles but not at the expense of missing the shot.
Any advice or Suggestions would be appreciated.
I strip the bark and carve some, and leave the bark on others. I have a Mora knife mounted on my survival stick, along with a small bicycle water bottle. The grip is wrapped with paracord, and has a lanyard though the stick so I can’t drop it, and so no one can pull it away from me. The mount that holds a bottle on a bike is perfect for holding it on the stick. I’ve seen all sorts of sticks, and all sorts of things mounted on sticks. Walking sticks are fun to make, fun to experiment with, and can be habit forming.
Totally agree!!! Your Staff should be an inch or two taller than you. The shorter ones most people see to prefer can be a danger going down a steep hill.
I have found over the years to look on hillsides for my walking stick because they tend to have a bend in them naturally right at ground level so I dig around the base of the trunk and cut below the surface to get my sticks
I just started a walking/hiking stick, I was looking thru your videos and came across yours, very nice stick 39C……….THUMBS UP
Do you recommend a particular wood? I have started searching for the perfect walking stick and the pursuit appears to be much like the perfect fixed blade or perfect folder (right now it is my para 2, who knows for next month). Your mileage may very, beauty is in the eye of the beholder…. and so on BUT
Each wood gives some advantage ( much like each steel) and I would love to hear what others think is the “right” wood for a good walking stick or staff.
When he reached up into the tree. I thought he was going to say the stick is good for knocking down wasp’s nests. Then he started talking about the girth and how the curve on the staff was more comfortable and starts stroking it up and down. I lost it.
Great Vid. Thumbs up and a sub!
Check this stick out that I made…..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6JWKrFdWVc
That looks awesome Darell. Man that turned out nice. Like the color you went with. Now I want to make myself one. Cheers Mark.
Where I live there is a lot of really thick brush so I always carry a stick to sweep out in front of me and push the brush aside, I always carry mine at about the halfway point seems more comfortable when im not using it as a probe.
great info, love the quote on your stick.. explains very well what i have been trying to put in the right words…..why i go to the desert much more than the forest.
Make sure you lock up or hide that gorilla glue where kids or dogs can’t get to it. I had someone on one the channels I like to watch—their dog died because they are the gorilla glue.
I was told years ago by my Granddaddy that you need a walking stick that is big around enough and tall enough (long enough and thick enough) to fit under a walker’s or hiker’s armpit so they might use it as a crutch of sorts…
I have twisted my ankle a couple times and would have liked to have a stick to help me limp out of the woods or rocks. This is just some advice I received from the greatest man I have ever known next to The Lord God Almighty. He always included me on fishing trips or hunting trips and taught me so much. He loved me and I love being with him and my Grandmaw. I love and miss them so much…
Your sticks are basically the size of the Japanese Jo staff, so, if you want to practice defense techniques with them, look into the Jo techniques taught by Aikido and other Japanese arts.
I have a walking staff but its actually just a broom stick that I bought for a few bucks at ace hardware. It works great. Good video. Cheers
I make all my own hiking staffs. I never strip the bark off. No need to worry about coming up with some kind of grip that way. The bark works perfect for that all by itself.
guiding my first Alpenstock workshop next week and I need some ideas for making comfortable, water-proof grips for our walking sticks. what are your ideas paracord? tennis racket handle grip tape? ranger bands? other ideas?
In town or in the woods, I feel naked without my walking staff. When I watch backpackers with all their high-tech gear on their backs, & they aren`t using trekking poles or a staff, I always say to myself: they`re one fall, one twisted ankle, one wrenched knee away from “seeing the light.” Five dog licenses of canine Family members past, dangle from a loop just below my staff`s grip. We still “walk together” everyday…John Muir is the iconic naturalist/backwoods traveler who always used a hiking staff on his journeys…You`ve got some fine hiking staff material there, son. Hike On!
Smart! Simple and light weight. People who fill their staff with gear are going to regret it after an all day hike. Anyone who is survival minded isn’t going to be out in the wild with only a staff. He/she will have a pack or at least a gear belt. One is more likely to be separated from his/her staff than a pack or belt.
Great video! My 2 cents-I would probably put a bolt thru that head & handle to assure it wouldn’t pull off when used in a weight load. Thanks for all your ideas you share!
Go thinner and fire harden it like you would a primative spear point.
Look forward to it. I’ve got a quite nice Arno brand drawknife in my shed, I use it for making axe handle tops fit nicely.
It’s not a disguise if people know your identity. Shhhh. It’s hard out here for a rat.
A man can destroy a planet. A woman can destroy a man.

This reminds me of the classic scouting staff we had to make when I was a boy 50 years ago. It had many uses including holding a pot over a fire. The top ends were measured off into 12 inch segments and had a hook on the top to hold the pot handle. We tied rope around the centre that could be unwrapped and used when needed. I make a walking stick every now and then in the European style and pick up brass end pieces for the bottom from Lee Valley. I even have a few of the metal shields tacked to it from different walks in Europe. I also put a leather lash that I can put my wrist through and make indents where my fingers can wrap around comfortably. The ‘third leg’ is highly under-rated.
Really enjoyed your video. I’m have a question. I have a few walking sticks I found and noticed in the center of where I cut them there’s on tiny little black spot if I cut a little pass that it fades away but is a little soft if I poke my blade thru it. Is this normal? Or is it rotten from indeed out or termites? I really like them but I don’t want to continue on them if no good. Thanks
I have two that are made of iron wood,, LOL,, you really do need of Saw to go through that wood,, I even made a walking stick out of an old rake handle LOL,, and if I can find it again I saw a stick that has a curly q, in it kind of like a spyrel,, if I can find it again it’s coming home with me lol
My pick for the wrap would be Tuff Cord Desert Camo and Gold. Look real good together, but not outrageous, and they seem to blend Ina southwest desert environment.
Cool video! Something about taking the bark of of limbs is so satisfying lol
Just came across your video. This is awesome. I see the video is almost 4 yrs old. How is the walking stick holding up? Any issues with the survival handle?
I would have cut me a good straight persimmon sapling..you want break hardwood as easily as yellow or white pine.
It’s to short f you need one taller up to ur chin. What about snakes if dangerous ones ok but nice video
Sir God bless u.
Old video but still good,, I have two that are made out of iron wood,, I turned an old rake handle into a walking stick,, I saw another one out in the woods that has this cool spiral going down the stick,, where a Vine went around the tree and cut into it,, if I can find it again it’s coming home with me
This inspired me to get back to making mine. Thanks for sharing this. Have a good one.
I love the ideal men u got me wonting one for my old grandpa he stuck to a cane or walker
What kind of wood is that and also are those sticks seasoned before bending.Поздрав из Србије.
Great job buddy, ive been thinking of making something similar for a while now after I found an old scouting manual pages archived on the internet that talk of merits of a hiking stick
All the best from the UK

I really like what you did with that walking stick. There’s something so rewarding about making those isn’t there? I’m from Michigan too, I’m from Grand Haven. What part of Michigan are you from?
Neon orange. Looks great. And I hope it proforms. The same. Never mind you did it.
UST fire cord is blaze orange paracord and has an extra strand of fire starter chord inside, make a good wrap.

Speaking as a Western fella, deserts are kind of beautiful in their own ways.
I’m finishing up one this weekend. How did the flex seal work out for you? Did it last?
GREAT idea for the HM knife handle. A tiny bit of storage, but more importantly you now have a threaded fitting that you can put many types of attachments on. Question: Do you have any idea where I can purchase a good quality hollow knife handle?
Ahhhh, yet another use for the flex seal/
Getting to where I’m needing a little help getting around day to day. Been putting off using a cane because, well they look like a cane. This is what I think when thinking cane. Want that exact look but in black with yellow.. All my gear is black with yellow accents.
I’m in a urban scene so would be more geared for self defense so thinking some sort of heaver metal band some how incorporated around end, or ends.
I’m making my own now as we have a forest near us in England and I shave sand and stain them they make nice walking sticks
what I do is I take off a tree branch and use some asphalt to sand it down and I burn it to take the little strings off then I take it home to sand it a little more after that I will coat it.

Nice walking stick. That para cord is sure an attention getter.
Very nice Darrell. I need to make one for myself. I use some aluminum hiking pole right now. Your looks a lot better
Whooo! That puppy is blinging brite! Love the repurposed handle.
Welcome back!!! Like your new additions to the survival stick (AKA: broke down hoe) sorry I couldn’t resist. I have so many handles that we have got working cows. But I do have a hoe that’s no good. I can’t keep it sharpen. My next project
Didn’t even put 5 million different rattle toys, that you’ll never use, in a hidden compartment? How dare you!
They were sanded. Debarked first. We’re getting ready to do a video for a draw knife. It can be used for skinning sticks or logs. One day I plan to leave the one walking stick of mine next to a trail. Sort of a gift to a hiker and to continue the walking stick’s story. -Krik
You’re called Black Owl, your symbol is a penguin, and you call viewers turtles?
great looking hiking/survival stick brother, when i make mine i poly it to help it be more resistant to weather
Cool idea! Great end result! Thanks for sharing!
Atb,
Jenn:)
Yesah! Sweet stick! I love the handle idea
That paracord is blingn’! I may have to try my hand at making a 39 camper walking stick!
Thank you for this video. I managed to make two sticks one of ash and the other of elm. My grandfather was surprised because I managed to make those two sticks. He told me that he made such sticks when he was a child and that they used them when tending sheep.Поздрав из Србије.
Thought I might enjoy this, but nothing tells the world you’re an idiot like a Trump cap.
too much talking… waaaaay too slow….. for crying out loud
I’ve never had much luck using aluminum foil containers for boiling water. They always leak on me, so useless. I’m pretty sure I’ve tried it with heavy duty also. At any rate, people who think they are going to rely on that method should try it in real life, along with trying their mylar survival blanket for a shelter. Most of the ones I’ve tried turn into shredded scarecrow decoration in a minute or so. So, believe me, try it. 😉
Galldang how many salal berries did you pack in before turning the camera on? LMBO I thought I was watching king fu tv for a moment. Lol
Also, spearhead against a bear? Good luck with that. Bow staff, now that is certainly an option
Good information btw. I enjoy my hiking staffs. Have several and select them beforehand depending on the season and circumstances.
I have worked for a utilities company for 32 years now and still have my trusty old yard brush all this time.It’s had 7 new brush heads and 10 new shafts and never let’s me down.
Ash is great wood for walking sticks, clubs, etc. Treat them with boiled linseed oil once a year to keep them healthy.
The brown paint will protect the hook after grinding some of the original finish off
Loved the thumbnail clickbait. Reminded me of the uber tactical ARs with all their 50 tactical attachments.
1 problem with your staff though.
There’s no storage compartment for tactical treats. You can’t go out into the woods without tactical treats!
You should show us how to survive off that for 3 days alone bro. Good video
Drive a nail or screw through the hook end to hold it, versus just the friction fit.
Like your videos.
Shine on
Been too long my friend. Great video/idea. I swear, I have a brother-in-law that could be your identical twin. I got him watching your videos. He said you’re a brother from another mother….Keep up the great work.
Stop calling your viewers “turtles” it’s alienating as hell!
Did you get the idea originally from Carl Kaufeld’s book, Snakes and Snake Hunting? I remember it back in the fifties or early sixties as one of my first snake books.
My walking sticks bring me comfort. I like to walk with a stick because it helps me stand up more straighter that if I were to use my cane. Yes, there are elderly that benifit from walking sticks but don’t forget about the disabled. Not all of us are old.: ) Some of us youngins can benefit.
Hello. Where did you get those stick? Are they from a company or did you make them? Thank You for Your time.
Nice modifications, I can’t wait to see it in use in future videos.
Very nice:o)
I just found a suitable branch on my walk today, that I’m going to make into a walking stick. I think it’s alderwood. It’s quite thick, so if someone has an idea of how I can make it thinner without power tools, please let me know.
I have a WSH Wood Sheep Hook from Tractor Supply and cut down to a long Walking Cane! And the cane has many uses… tjl
Great video. You are certainly prepped for whatever is coming…god bless
This video turned out Way different from the thumbnail picture and first 15 seconds. I watched your first video on the survival walking stick and bought a damn nice hoe for 30 bucks with a straight grain hickory handle. Cutting away the blade was a B..cH, but liking it. Thanks for your videos Bro and all the best from New Mexico. Lefty
Surprised no one’s said anything about the Trump 2020 hat!
was missing your vids, good to see you, video as well as ever, greatings from Germany, Bernd
You should always let a walking stick season for 4 to 6 months before completing it. You’ll reduce the chance of it cracking.
Lol sorry but I could just imagine someone crossing a frozen lake while poking the ice with a stick. I could see the person breaking through the ice while in the middle of the lake, falling to an eternal frozen sleep.
Good video. Use it to find the hight of a tree:) All the best to you and yours
This morning i was thinkin, “where the hell is the snake”? Imagine my suprise, after lunch, seeing a new vid in my feed. And an awesome one at that. Thanks brother.
Shoe polish is better to use. It’s more water resistant and becomes grippier when wet.
Awesome bro. Great craftsmanship. Love the handle. Thanks for sharing. Atb. Robert
Ha. You fell on your ass. I mean, oh, are you ok? Walk it off.
Might be best in the long run if you would let it dry a little bit or not use fresh wood.
Great video. I’ve always wanted to make a stick with a screw attachment to have various tips. Spear, hook, etc…. I didn’t think that was a slip. I thought you were dodging a sasquatch attack or green mamba.
I just received a staff in the mail. It is Hornbeam AKA ironwood from Pennsylvania and @ 56″ perfect for my 6’2″ frame AND replacing the 55.5″ aluminum mast for my Polish Palatka rain capes( two) tent combo. I try to support folks supplying more traditional kit for income VS plastic that winds up as pollution. I do have a few items ie my Suunto compass and a critical Wiggys sleeping bag that will last a lifetime. It’s a little reverse one upmanship to use surplus or traditional kit to the initial derision or interest from someone who entered a REI etc with money and exited looking like a OUTSIDE magazine model.
How about mounting a Mora knife on it? I don’t know about weight, but how about a bicycle water bottle. The mount should fit the diameter of that stick perfectly. Might be worth trying. I know a fellow who fills in cracks with bright wire, or plastic, or whatever he finds that looks cool. He epoxies them in, which also holds the stick together. But be careful. I blew out my knee a couple of years ago, and now I’m hooked on making walking sticks.
They are very handy and can do a number of things. In my area there are cougars, bears, and lots of wild hogs so having one is great. I always used them in the jungle especially for balance and knocking the spider webs down. On jungle trails you will always find spider webs, and what I used to hate is that they would always be at eye level, and many times you would see the spider just as your face hit the web. What made it worse is after you jump, and try to wipe the spider and webbing off of your face you would never see the spider on the ground so you did not know if it was still on you or not.
I need a walking stick so I can stop grabbing my son or husband to pull me or help me down hills.
It had never occurred to me to keep the sticks I find and use on bushwalks. I’ve discarded some great ones, too. I reckon I’ll be following suit and collect a fee. Did you sand the first couple you showed back? or are they just barkless?
I am a firm believer that every man, woman and child should have a stick. That is a mighty fine stick my friend. TC/SS-S
Mom knows what she’s Talk’n ’bout Huh Steve! Always use 1 myself ATB Ter God Bless
