Making a walking cane from Osage Orange. 

Awesome job thank you for sharing

I recently finished at walking stick from an osage branch. I used an angle grinder with a 80 grit disc to get the rough shape, works pretty well. Thanks for sharing, nice walking stick.

Nice self defense weapon too.

That look like a good walking stick and noggin nocker.

this wood makes good sticks. interest grain and shapes. I find it along RR tracks here in IL

I noticed the bug dust coming from the blank. I have a lot of Osage that has insect damages and was wondering what to do with it, now I know. Great video brother! Subbed Edit:, an old friend told me the holes are made by a wood wasp. The eggs are in the bark already when you cut it. He told me to remove the bark when it's cut and ,no more larvae.

Really enjoy your videos! I have been driving by an Osage Orange tree here in OK for a few years now and always wanted to stop and get a blank to make a walking stick for me and my sons and daughter, but never have. We enjoy hiking a lot. So, tonight I thought I would see if there was anybody on youtube showing how to do this and what a find to see you showing the process and detail you go through in making your canes and walking sticks. I appreciate you taking the time! You have motivated me! I will definitely be going by and getting a blank this weekend and letting it start to dry. Hopefully getting one in the summer won't be a mistake. If so, I will get one this winter. I don't have a draw knife so will have to find one before I finish the drying process. One question I have for you is how long do you wait in between coats of the Burt's Beeswax? Thanks again!

I see that powder coming off as you were taking bark off. Those lictids even eat Osage orange!!

really enjoy your video. I really like the Osage Orange wood, and have been thinking about making a walking stick with it myself. It seems it is really hard to find a suitable blank. If you know of any source that sells such blanks, I would really appreciate it if you could let me know.

Where can i find that tree in the wild in san antonio tx, love to find me some sticks for me own walking sticks

Do you sell the Osage walking sticks by chance? I've been looking everywhere for one
