Hand Carved Hiking Stick made from Chestnut with a Privet Thumb Grip

All my sticks are individually made by myself using traditional woodworking tools. The privet thumb grip is attached to the chestnut  pole with an 80mm x 8mm double ended screw that is stuck with heavy duty wood glue (rock solid). It is finished with four coats of yacht varnish.
This is a straight and strong stick with a striking appearance and a lovely patina. Please refer to the detailed photos. 

There is nothing on Ebay of this quality for double the price, please see for yourself.

Total length is approximately 45½".
