This is just the walking stick I was looking for. It really sets off my ensemble. Your products are always of the highest quality.

This a a great, well made walking stick. The brass on the shaft it inlaid and the knob is a solid piece of metal. Highly recommend!

I purchased this walking stick for a Victorian theatrical production and was thoroughly surprised. I decided to go with the least expensive walking stick offered on the website to stay on budget. When it arrived, it was cautiously and carefully packed. I was amazed to find the quality and craftsmanship far exceeded my expectations. For the price, I expected gold painted trim and flimsiness, but found beautiful inlay and solid weight to this walking stick instead. Well worth the expense!

I was amazed at the authenticity of the walking stick and the craftsmanship is simply wonderful. I was looking for something to add distinction to my attire and found it in this period masterpiece.

This cane fit the time period impression I was shooting for. Looks great and really good quality.

I am totally pleased with my Derby Cane.

I was very pleased with your service. The cane arrived as promised. Unfortunately, I found the quality of the scrollwork on the handle was less than I had expected. It is ok; I can live with it. But just ok. I am disappointed in the quality, but I need the cane. Peter Witkiewicz

This cane is high quality , really nice .

Got this to polish off a gambler outfit I put together for CAS. I have a bum ankle and need a good cane from time to time. Looks great, feels good in hand, only detractor would be the rubber cap on the foot. It'd be nice to have a brass ferrule.

Great cane and it's well made. I bought this to go with my old west gambler outfit for when I want to classy up the joint. I also have a bad ankle and so this was a big help that looks good too. The head screws on but holds tight and is comfortable. My only issue is that it has a rubber boot on the bottom. I was hoping I could replace it was a brass tip and attach a rubber foot on the bottom of that. I'll figure something out. Otherwise I'm extremely happy with this.

Due to an injury, I needed a functional cane, so I thought I'd get which is Victorian period correct. I got several compliments on the cane when I used the cane at a Western event. The quality and visual impact is excellent. It's heavy and solid and the brass handle is beefy. I made the right choice.

Love the looks and feel. I wish it was a little longer, I was using an expandable one for a few week until I found and received this one and the extra inch or two seemed to be better, however this one is the height all the expert say should be right for me, If they could make an inch or two longer and allow customers to cut to right height (which it come with instructions for shorter people to cut and put the cap back on. It would be perfect, I love it.

This cane is Great the Quality it Great and my husband will be using it in Oct dowm in Tombstone.

Comfortable, sturdy and a pleasure to hold. Great Value!!

I thought the Brass /Walnut Cane I just purchased was a great buy both in quality of product and style. I just had total Knee replacement surgery 5 days ago and just returned from the hospital. I plan to use the cane as part of my re-hab process as soon as I finish with the walker in about a week. My PT therapist said she thought it look very elegant and I agree. I will likely use it after I don't need it.

Cane is usable as a walking aide. Goes great with or without my Steampunk attire. Also came with instructions on how to size the cane to properly use as a walking aide.

Gift for my son. His assessment: Striking to look at, beautiful balance. The perfect accessory to keep ruffians at bay during late night strolls.

I had this cane sized and I enjoy it. Friends and strangers have asked to try it and they too like it for its sturdiness and good looks.

Solid, fashionable, very nice accessory.

So far so good. This was shipped to me right away and has a nice weight to it. I am giving to my father for Christmas so hopefully he likes it!

I'm very glad that this store is around! because this was another wonderful buy.I founded my new favorite store!

This is a very well made and beautiful walking stick!! well worth the money. Thank you! I'll be back for sure!

This turned out to be a very nice addition to my collection. An excellent value and sharp to boot! Note - it is GLASS however, not crystal, so do not expect the same type of characteristics.

This is an great buy! It is not a cheaply made item like you would find in a costume store. It is real glass and wood and a beautiful piece. It has a nice, sturdy feel to it and looks like I spent much more than I did for it.

Yes, we received our order in a very timely fashion and are very satisfied with the product.

Wonderful Walking Stick, just what I was looking for. It arrived in a timely manner. My only concern is the handle is a little loose and rocks a bit. Otherwise a good purchase.

I like the walking stick very well I only regret that I did not get one with the black knob. I wish I could purchase a black knob for this stick instead of the glass knob. The service I recieved was definately a 5star. J.Royce

I am very impressed with the level of service and the quality of the product. Looks and feels great, would definitely recommend to others

I am Quimera, from Quimera Music, a Neo Classical Rock Vocalist in New York. I had been looking for the perfect walking stick for my show for a while. I have purchased a few things from Historical Emporium, so I came looking for it here. This is a great quality and beautiful walking stick. High quality and great value. Highly recommend it to anyone!All the best, Quimera Music

I use a cane for balance. I prefer the knob top since I am not putting too much weight on it. This cane is great for that purpose, also looks great and has a nice heft. Had a different style silver plated one from another outlet and have dropped it several times and the silver plating has dented off, so that is why I got the solid brass. So far so good.

I always told myself I wouldn't start relying on a walking stick, but my back says otherwise some days, so I decided I'd buy a stick which was also useable as a costume accessory. This fits the bill very well. It's sturdy enough for support, strong and has a little heft to it. One very tiny fault - the metal collar below the handle does not sit tightly on mine, and is a little rough on the fingers after a while. The easy answer is to just change grip, but a tighter, straighter fit would be nice. All the same, I love this cane.

Very nice cane got several complimen on it the first time I used it.

A little bit short for a 5-11" frame (i have hip replacement issues, so do have a need for a cane on occasion), but it's certainly a good quality cane with a bit of heft - whether for actual practical use, or in cosplay.

Great like it

The cane is very good quality. The shipping is so fast.

This not only props you up but is the best prop for your debonaire millionaire look.

Excellent all round

I picked up this walking stick for a pair of reasons. A: I love the classic look of a gentleman with a walking stick, and B: I often have hip and back pain that are eased with the use of a cane. The order arrived promptly, and the cane was just as pretty as shown. What they could not show was the beautiful heft and balance of this walking stick. The feel of it in hand is simply divine. It moves quite nicely as an extension of my arm. I have studied a few martial arts, and the sturdiness of this makes me feel confident that it would hold up quite well if I needed to teach an assailant one of the finer points of bartitsu. All in all, the expense is well worth the quality of the product.

I wanted something nicer than an aluminum old folk's cane to help me move around after tearing my ACL. Received a lot of compliments. Knob doesn't thread on quite straight. Very happy otherwise.

classic walking stick for my son and his evil steampunk ways. perfect match for brown accented outfit.

This cane looks and feels really good. It is very robust. The screwed-on head is very stable. It is designed so it can be cut if it is too long for you. There's even instructions on how to determine the right length for you. I like it so much, I'm gonna be looking for excuses to carry it around.

A cane befitting of a carnival barker indeed. This cane is very high quality and the rubber safety tip is a nice touch (won't mark up floors). The cane itself is sturdy and could be used as an actual cane, albeit a really cool looking one. The bamboo aesthetic is AMAZING along with the fit and finish of the cane as well. Overall, definitely worth a purchase if you're looking for this type of cane to go with your outfit.

Really like this cane. What would make it better is if you could remove the chunky rubber foot and find a solid brass foot or similar like a couple of other canes I have from you guys.

Great cane. Entirely satisfied!

If one must use a walking cane because of poor balance, which I have , this one is very good. It is made of real cane and is therefore very light because it is hollow. Being height challenged I needed it shortened. Then I went to a medical supply store and they installed a new rubber tip. I am rarely without this cane. Several friends who use canes have commented on the beauty and light weight of this necessity. A crook in the end makes the cane very easy to loop over your arm when you need 2 hands are hang from a counter in the kitchen while cooking. Not only is it a safety cane to steady me but also a handsome accessory.

THE CANE IS MADE VERY WELL. ALTHOUGH, I AM A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED. THE COLORAZATION BETWEEN THE CROOK AND THE STAFF ARE DECIDEDLY DIFFERENT. THE CROOK (HANDLE) IS MUCH DARKER THAN THE STAFF. I THINK I WILL BE ABLE TO STEEL WOOL THE STAFF AND RE-STAIN IT TO A DARKER COLOR.

Seems well made, and sturdy enough for a modest sized adult. The tip is certainly orthopedic--a bear to get off in one piece--and I think most HE customers will want to remove it for a less clunky and more traditional look. I wish mine were darker, as it is depicted on the site, but I'm guessing consistent hue is difficult to achieve with bamboo.

I liked the looks of this cane on the website and thought it would be a good accessory for a re-enactment persona I will be performing later this year. I ordered it and when it arrived was blown away by just how much better it looked in person! This cane is the perfect combination of sturdy and stylish. It is a good value for the price. I removed the rubber tip and did a slight finish touch up to then end and voila, it was ready to become part of my persona. BONUS: the balance and weight of the Van Dyke Bamboo cane lends itself to balancing and twirling tricks, so if you're on the lookout for an addition to a showman or theatrical performer outfit, I highly recommend it.

The Van Dyke is both a usefull tool of stability and a stylish form of walking assistance. This cane is the eighth wonder.

I've looked long and hard for a functional bamboo cane. This fills the bill. I've already walked several miles with it and it is a perfect companion when I go out for a "wee stretch of the legs."

It is perfect and arrived fast. Thank you JUDY

Very satisfied.

Nice, elegant and robust. Very convenient. Highly recommendable

Exactly what I ordered and expected.

I bought this cane for my husband. He says that it well-weighted and the wood looks nice. "And a handle that is a brass diving helmet? Can't get more steampunk than that!"

I was pleased with my order and it arrived on time. I liked the size and the quality was just what I expected. The brass divers helmet was a good size that feels comfortable in my hand.

This walking stick is a true piece of art. Gorgeous. I have quite a giant collection of antique deep sea diver collectibles and was stunned upon finding this product, and it's very affordable price! 5 stars!

I purchased the Brass Diver's Helmet Walking Stick as a Christmas gift for my husband, and it was delivered in plenty of time. He is very happy with it! We live on the East Coast and so we try to be realistic about anticipating how long it should take to receive a mail order from California. We have ordered hats and other accessories from your catalogue and we've been pleasantly surprised at how quickly we've gotten them. We've also been very happy with the quality of your products. We go to several Victorian and Steampunk-themed events every year and many of our friends also buy their costume pieces from your catalog. Keep up the good work!

Nice experience from beginning to end.

The can I recieved was even more attractive than the one pictured on line. It fits nicely in the hand and is great for an evening stroll. Historical Emporium's service has been excellent. All items I have ordered have been delivered promptly and were as good or better that the on-line description.

I just wanted to say thank you for having such a great customer service. You guys are awesome and I will use you again in the future as well as recommend you to my friends and family. Merry Christmas to all at Historical Emporium. V/R Anthony Shepard

A very nice piece. Solidly built, and with a great weight to it. Can't wait to take it for a spin!

This cane looks brilliant. Unfortunately, mine was damaged in the shipping process (no fault of the manufacturers), leaving the rubber tip chipped (inevitable, assuming one plans to use it on a weekly basis, as i do), and the metal cuff that binds the rubber and metal at a noticeable slant (quite irksome). One feature not mentioned in the product description is that the helmet screws off, allowing one to stash keys or trinkets within. The one problem that could be resolved by the manufacturer follows: after sustained use, the three pins which hold in place the metal ring which the head screws onto become loose. However, the owner can easily solve this issue by affixing said ring more firmly in place using a spot of epoxy. This cane is mildly expensive, given the build quality, but apart from my last complaint it is quite sturdy. The lower metal cuff is set solidly in place, and though it has fallen several times on concrete, you can barely see bronze beyond the nickel in the scratches if you look closely.
