I’ve been a knife collector since 1975, made a few of my own blades and put together a lot of knife kits. I wanted to do something a little different so about 12 years ago I made a few Micarta canes/walking sticks.
The two on the bottom (1st picture) and left (other 3 pictures) are made with 7/8” diameter solid Micarta shafts. I used aluminum fittings which are recessed into the shaft & epoxied in place, colored fiber spacers and India Sambar stag for the handles. They are 38 ¼” overall length.
The one on the top (1st picture) and right (in 3 other pictures)I made 2 years ago and is made with 3/2.5 titanium shaft which is ¾” in diameter, .095” wall thickness, aluminum fittings which are press fit and epoxied in place, colored fiber spacers and India Sambar stag handle. Overall length is also 38 ¼” A few weeks ago I modified this cane and made it into a take-apart cane. I cut the shaft near the middle, machined a nut and bolt to be press fit into the shaft and then pinned them in place.

I’m in the process of making (what will be) my last 2 titanium canes, so the ones pictured are for sale.
The Micarta ones are $125 each plus shipping, the titanium one is $SOLD plus shipping. USPS money order or PAYPAL. Shipping within the USA only
Here is the joint I made for the titanium cane:
