Walking Sticks For Defense?
We get a few calls and emails every month where people are asking us about the efficacy of walking sticks for defense and survival. Honestly, when it comes to using hardwood for defense, we’re admittedly pretty naive. We don’t pretend to be fighters, and, truth be told, we don’t want to be. We value the [...]
‘Ashokan Farewell’
I love this version of “Ashokan Farewell.” It’s amazing what two well played instruments can do.
Walking Sticks For Survival
We came across this interesting article on whether or not a walking stick should be part of someone’s survival gear. Most of us don’t think about including a walking stick in survival preparations. But for some, a sturdy walking stick should be a key component in any emergency gear. Older people might need the stick [...]

This culture is media-saturated.

Dignified. Solid. Reassuring.
I stood upon the hearth-rug and picked up the stick which our visitor had left behind him the night before. It was a fine, thick piece of wood … It was just such a stick as the old-fashioned family practitioner used to carry — dignified, solid, and reassuring. – The Hound of the Baskervilles, by [...]

Made in America
Made In USA. Made In America. American Made. Whatever the phrase, “pocketbook patriotism” (i.e., buying American-made products to help bolster American industry) is not only good for America, it’s good for consumers — and it appears to be on the rise. For decades, American ingenuity has been the engine under the hood of world industry. [...]

Confidence
After my days at Baylor as a photojournalism student I used to shoot a “man on the street” piece for my local newspaper. It was an entry level, out-of-college gig that paid slightly better than flipping burgers. The idea was you go up to a person, ask them a question and then take their photo [...]
