One of My New Canes!!!

[irishsmoker]

I also came home to this! It an English made cane! It's blood red! I've also got a cold steel black thorn coming!

Very nice Irish glad things worked out for you. Happy Belated Birthday.

Nice...Looks like the rain has dissipated for you a bit brother :D

 

[irishsmoker]

Thanks guys! For the first time in a long time things are looking up!

That's a beauty, right now I'm making use of a rather prosaic looking one provided by the hospital.

Glad I could help you find a new "Blackthorn", if I get old enough to need something to lean on, I might get one too, depending on how you like yours and if Cold Steel still makes them. Blackthorns are so neat, they almost make me wish I needed one now! At least now if something happends to one, you got a backup, stumbling all over the place is no way to live life.

Nice Irish!

 

[brdavidson]

Great stuff! Glad it worked out, that is quite nice

That red cane looks like total class and I hope that your new blackthorn can become a new family heirloom. I also hope that you mount your family one in a nice frame and hang it on the wall!

 

[irishsmoker]

@riechenbach I intend too!!!

 

[simnettpratt]

Outstanding, irish. Congratulations on the new shillelagh, er I mean walking stick! I'll be interested to know how you like the Cold Steel polypropylene Blackthorn. Of Doom!

 

[yohanan]

Congrats Irish, Congrats my Friend. I dont think you will be able to break the cold steel, but Rangers are a tough lot, and I have been known to be wrong on occasion. ::

 

[mctrav]

That's a sharp cane! Love the blood red

 

[cynyr]

Awesome, Irish!

 

[sparroa]

From what I have seen and read you will not break the Cold Steel Blackthorn with normal usage as a cane/walking stick...
All the same, I would avoid very cold temperatures with it because that has a propensity to weaken the polypropylene. Again under normal usage it should be fine - just don't whack anything steel or concrete with all of your might on a winter's day!
Good luck with them both.

Very nice cane. Hope I never need one.

You need a pair of oxblood boots to go with that cane. I have a pair of Lucchese 1883s that match it but you can't have those! They're my favorite boots!

 

[jharvard]

Irish, that is one sharp cane for a gentleman. Very sharp indeed. I also agree with our distinguished Baron you will need a nice oxblood boot or shoe to complete the "spiffy" and proper look you deserve. If my memory recall serves me well; I believe our fearless leader Kevin is a connoisseur of the very best footwear. I bet he could lend some knowledge on the topic or maybe even more! Perhaps, Kevin can be of assistance. Perhaps? LOL :puffpipe:
