86 Cane Patterns for the Woodcarver by Schiffer Publishing

Fulfilled by our friends at Schiffer Publishing

Forever fascinated by canes, the author has always collected them—he even has his grandma's and grandpa’s walking sticks. And, as a professional woodcarver, he knows there’s a good market for them. Walking sticks come in three basic categories: the cane, which is a walking aid or a gentleman’s walking stick; the staff or hiking stick, which is head-high; and the chest-high quarterstaff, which Tom’s grandpa used to call a “thunk stick.” Each of these types is generously represented among the 86 patterns in this book. Their designs include everything from fish to dragons and birds to beavers. This is a valuable reference book for all carvers.[AuthorName]Tom Wolfe[/AuthorName][AuthorBio]Tom Wolfe is one of the leading caricature woodcarvers in America.
