[quote=@Naril] I'm a 21st century woman.

I have two main walking sticks. The first one needs some final touches, but mostly I'm working on finding the right final design. The other I'm waiting to do the fire treatment I want to then I'm gonna seal it. It's a really nice kinda pine that once you pass it through a flame it's this fantastic near black dark brown, but the wood pattern still pops.
