Asterom Walking Cane - Handmade, Ergonomic, Wooden - Canes for Men & Women - Walking Sticks for Seniors, Unique, Wood - FSA/HSA Eligible

Look, nobody wants to become any sort of expert on canes, but the sad truth of the matter is that’s what it’s come to, as far as my life goes. I'm in full time need of a cane…So I can assure you: this is an excellent cane. It is seriously stout and strong (and still amazingly light and completely solid). I’m a big dude, and use it to walk around of course, but I actually need it now to pull my weight up from a chair or couch or back down again, and it supports my full weight as I do this. I can fully trust in this cane to support me even though I weight over two hundred pounds.And on top of that, this cane is crafted in Ukraine, this family business is hanging on through this awful chapter in their history, so when you buy one of his canes, you’re directly helping a Ukrainian man and his family.The last thing I’ll mention is that this type of handle that goes off to one side (as opposed to being centered on the cane) is really the best and most comfortable if you’re going to be using it a lot in supporting your weight.This is an excellent cane and you’ll be extra-pleased with your purchase with the added satisfaction that it’s directly supporting a family business in a war-torn country.It’s strong and functional and beautiful, you can’t go wrong…

An absolute beauty of a cane, I get compliments all the time. The outside is quite smooth, and the heads are interchangeable so I can customize it further which I plan too. The size is a bit bigger than I expected but it works great. The wood is sturdy and supports me even if I lean the cane, so it makes it easy to relax while walking around.

I was looking for a cane to use when I was a little more dressed up than normal and it is perfect! it's beautiful, a perfect height, and is very sturdy. it feels great in the hand and I get so many compliments on it already it may become my daily driver yet.

This cane was beautiful, and everything I expected. It is sturdy and the grip feels good. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Excellent product, very well finished wood, easy to assemble, very sturdy. Size can be customized to the inch. The beautiful grain to the wood makes this much more attractive than most other walking canes. Happy to support a Ukrainian family business also.

excellent cane. worth the price, which isn't too bad. the cane is sturdy and extremely beautiful. I am using it for my knee rehab. I got the right height, and it is very comfortable to use when I am walking. very stylish and better looking than the cheap metal ones. worth every penny.

I'm happy with the cane. It looks great and is sturdy.BUT, I HAD DROPPED IT AND A CHUNK CAME OUT OF THE HANDLE.My only observation otherwise is that a few times,The handle has loosened, but that's quickly remediedWith a few tightening twists. If it continues I think I'lljust put a dab of glue in the joint.I love the cane but recently it slipped out of my hand and fell to the floor. A piece of the handle broke off.

Hello! I am 38yo, with years of chronic pain and hypermobility issues. I finally decided it was time to get some balance support. I researched many canes, knowing I wanted something comfortable, light, ergonomic, but also classy; no cheap shiny aluminum for this gal! As soon as I found Asterom I knew I had found my cane. Major bonus- as I saw many reviewers also said- to be supporting a small family business in Ukraine during the war. I even received a Thank You note for supporting them during this incredibly difficult time. I chose the Cherry finish, and it is just as advertised in the photos: rich, deep, gorgeous. I have already been complimented several times on it, and I've only had it for three days! As their instructions advised, I knew I needed it to be shortened. My friend was able to easily hand-saw it down a couple of inches for the perfect fit. Not only is it helping with my hips and balance, it's already helping me re-train my gait; my physical therapist informed me that my arches have fallen, and I have been compensating by curling my little toes in like claws. I had not figured out how to start fixing this problem- now with this beautiful cane I can safely adjust my gait without worrying about falling down. Being perfectly honest here: I have been an Amazon customer since the 90s' when I was young and simply thrilled that I could find rare books on this magical thing called the internet. Over the decades I have purchased hundreds upon hundreds of various items. When I get something I adore, I always feel bad that I am terrible about leaving reviews. This time, what I have received is so life-changing, this is literally the first I have taken the time to write a full review. I want to help people know that this company is great, their product is excellent and just as advertised, the cane is easily shortened, and we get to support a family business during this unbearable time of survival for them. I hope this helps someone choose quality and comfort over other, cheap products. Cheers and thank you Asterom! And who knows, maybe someday I will get one of their gorgeous custom handles. For now, I am thrilled with the product as it is. Oh- info I know I am always looking for in reviews: I am 5'4" (slightly taller with basic shoes), 130lb and we cut the 36" cane down about 2.5" and now it is perfect (as suggested, we matched the lowest part of the handle with my wrist bone at a relaxed stand). Side note- I already managed to drop it on the concrete and the finish is pretty fragile. I lost a tiny bit of the finish and roughened the Oak up a bit on the handle, but my brilliant coworker rubbed some candle wax on the spots and it smoothed out right away. No big deal, just FYI. It does come with a strap, but I hadn't shortened it yet so it slipped right off my small wrist. For now I just taped it to shorten the loop, and eventually will sew it when I know exactly where I want it. Best of luck to the Asterom family and everyone shopping for their forever walking support!
