Custom
Shepherd's Crooks (Market Sticks)
The handles of these
trial crooks
are made of Myrtlewood from the coast of Oregon. Myrtlewood
has
wonderful chatoyancy (an irridescent or "hologram" quality) and are
finished with many coats of polyurethane. The handles are
hand-carved and finished and the stick portion is hand-tapered.
Technically, the shape and quality of these crooks is what is known as
a "market stick" or the stick farmers would take with them to the
livestock market when they wanted to look their best.
Every
Stick Is Unique
