"It's not the first time I've been knocked out," says the shillelagh maker. Pretty funny.

Keep watching his site till you see the stick with your name on it. There´s a fine line between an impulse buy and snooze you lose but whatever you get from this man, it´s heirloom quality.

Thanks for the info Mr. McCaffrey! I also noticed that my newest stick is already on its way to Hawaii! This is for my friend who loved my Rowan stick...can't wait to see this new masterpiece from you, be well!

This is what I was looking for! I do use a walking stick due to my pretty worn out knees and I'm looking for something different than the usual canes.

[@FrancisMcCaffrey5]

All my sticks are one of a kind hope you see something you like

[@davehunt8088]

Great knowledge of past times.Refreshing to learn and understand.Will be ordering soon.

[@richardainsworth4357]

These lessons are awesome! Thank you sir!

[@frankcerven3672]

Mr McCaffrey, thank you for putting out your videos. I'm sorry to say you make it very hard, to decide on a sheleighly walking stick, because you made the comment my wife would kill me if I kept everything that I liked, how true how true. I purchased a BiddyMurphy walking cane /sheleighly. And I notice it splitting and cracking up the shaft is that normal? It is 37 in.long,and 1 in diameter..

Good morning Francis can you do a video about your heavier sticks and if you can put lead shot in the handle to make it heavier? thank you.

[@FrancisMcCaffrey5]

Maybe I don’t add lead to sticks unnecessary with real blackthorn

[@user-be5xq9dh9o]

Yes ok thanks
