I was in Woodcraft this morning and spotted a kit for a turned two piece walking cane. Not really a kit but the hardware to turn a really nice cane. Handle, joiner and tip. The store I was in had the brass handles but not the joiner or tip. Oh well mail order is not that expensive from Woodcraft. What kind of finish would be good for a walking cane ? I have some highly figured hard maple blanks and some rosewood, both suitable sizes for the cane. Not sure which I will use.
