Solid English Walnut Market Stick Handle Blank
English Walnut wood is prized for its rich, dark brown heartwood with contrasting cream-colored sapwood, often featuring swirling, irregular grain patterns. It's a versatile hardwood known for its workability, durability, and beautiful finish. All wood used is UK sourced and UK grown.
All wood kiln, air dried or recycled. I cut a few blanks at a time. I look for grain and interesting patina.
Product Description
A crafted handle blank made from natural wood enabling the buyer to finish. Each handle is finished 'over sized' to allow for waste material to be removed and attach to a shank up to an inch and a quarter in thickness.
How to use
Simple tools and a bit of work will soon have your handle ready to fit to a suitable shank.
I recommend and use a traditional peg and socket joint. I do not recommend or use threaded rods. Wood is a natural material and should be allowed to move and flex. Using a threaded rod does not allow natural movement of the wood therefore is liable to cause breakout.
