I know it says it's decorative and not intended to fully support an adult, but it really FEELS solid. The shaft is made from the kind of solid, hard wood you don't often find in "wooden" products nowadays. The handle is also very solid and ornate, although mine out of the box was not nearly as shiny as shown. The handle is very securely attached to the shaft. I haven't used it much, but I don't expect the rubber tip to last--it's too long and not wide enough.

All of the above means two things: First, you will have a very stylish accoutrement to a steampunk Halloween costume or steadying stick while riding a bicycle with a ridiculously huge front wheel and hilariously tiny back wheel. Second, any would-be muggers will be very, very sorry, as you're basically carrying a well disguised war hammer.

UPDATE: After a long evening of fake-limping with its aid, the walking stick held up fine. A small part of the rubber tip broke off and it is generally smushed down, but it's still functional. I also discovered the handle screws off of the shaft, which may useful if you have a spare walking stick handle laying around.

Was just what I was looking for to use in a theatrical play. Solid and well made with a rubber tip for limited slippage.

I had been carrying a "stick" stick on my daily walks, but upgraded to a real walking stick. Very stylish!
