Locus is another hard wood. We used to cut them for fence posts back in the 60's, and an axe literally wouldn't cut it. Ironwood was another rock-hard tree too.
@@JennyEverywhere Yes, you're absolutely correct, Gwen. Autocorrect isn't very accurate at times, and I don't pay attention to it as often as I should.
I have one cane I got first which is white oak, then years later, I tried to get its complement in heartwood hickory. I called up the original order for the oak cane and used that same measurement. I was dismayed to see that this new cane was a couple or three inches SHORTER than my original cane. Since you can't add length, I didn't try to ask for some kind of repair, as I might if it were overlong. So I have a lovely hickory heart cane with a striking edge and grips, but it's too short to use comfortably. Can you do or have you done a video explaining how to determine the length, since going by the previous order's length was such a disaster? If that length wasn't correct, how am I supposed to measure more accurately? This has been very frustrating over the years.
There is a video on this channel, and I’m sure you could find it by searching, but in this video it shows how I measured my cane & it came out perfectly. ua-cam.com/video/lWZvQzSJgXc/v-deo.html
My Veterans cane arrived today. More than pleased. It's work of art. I chose Hickory for my cane.
I have that same billiard table in your video--1940 Brunswick Tournament table.
That’s awesome! 🤗❤️
Do you think you’ll get the pure hickory back in stock soon?
Is there a significant difference in weight between the 'hickory with heart' and the 'pure hickory', or is the difference minimal?
Hi there! Pure Hickory is just a little bit heavier than the Hickory with Heartwood.
Do your canes use standard tips that can be bought commercially, or do you have them in stock?
We suggest to purchase the tips from us to get the correct size for your cane.

Q: what do you think of blackthorn? I have a lovely shillelagh that seems hard as iron.
