Shroom Stick
In our area of the Midwest morel mushroom hunting is a right of spring. A pan full of sliced morels sautéed in butter is a delicacy that can't be beat. Any mushroom hunter worth his or her salt won't go out looking for morels without a good "shroom" stick. The stick is used to clear away the leaves, poison ivy and brush that hide the mushrooms. Here's my first attempt at carving a shroom stick.
I started out carving the mushroom as a topper from a pine 2x4. I then decided to just make the whole stick from a 2x4. The shaft is a ripped down and then rounded 2x4, stained in dark walnut. I borrowed CV3's grip texturing for this stick. The grip is stained in cherry for contrast.
