I have made some walking canes with hand saw handles. One is made of eastern red cedar and maple. The other is made of Purple heart, Mesquite, Cypress and titebond III,

Thank you all for your kind comments.  I cut them out with my scroll saw then round it off with round over bit in my table mounted router and sand to finish. In one, I put in maple plugs to simulate the bolts in a hand saw.

Thanks Jim, they look great, simple idea really but effective. I might have a go at one of them thanks for sharing the idea and method.
