Weather was nice so I made a hiking/walking stick today

[pirate]

65" .......From a small limb from a water oak I found in the yard that came down a while back. I used a hand axe, bushcraft knife, Silky saw. propane torch, sandpaper and several coats of BLO.

Well done sir! Looks great, always good to have a nice walking stick. What brand and model is your axe and blade in the picture? They look sharp (see what I did there 🤣)

Yes. Inquiring minds want to know!

The knife is a BPS. They are made in the Ukraine. The leather sheath and nice ferro rod that comes with the knife itself is well worth the $40 asking price. You will not find a better leather sheath at this price point. The scales are a bit roughly finished but functional and they use good blade steel. They make a great bushcraft knife.




The hatchet is a Swedish military hatchet. I think Sportsman Guide has them for around $35. The two hatchet flanking the Swedish hand axe are $14 Harbor Freight units, which are diamonds in the rough and fun to mod.
