Walking Stick
What finish should I use on my walking stick?

I’ve heard these from different sources on the internet. Teak oil from a professional walking stick maker, tung oil from someone who sounded like they knew what they were talking about as well, and that person said that you could also use boiled linseed oil, which some other people who make walking sticks use. I’m looking for something that’s going to protect my walking stick from dents and scratches rather than make it look good, but looks are a bonus. Thank you.
Gorkbarque has the best answer. Thanks.

Both teak oil and tung oil are penetrating finishes, which means they soak into the wood instead of just sitting on top like polyurethane. Tung oil is more for interior surfaces, whereas teak oil stands up better to water and is recommended more for outdoor use.

There is a difference between teak oil and teak oil finish. Anything called “finish” has a varnish added.

Once cited by Bob Dylan as the first performer he’d want to sign to his own label, Leon Redbone instead made his 1976 recording debut with Warner Brothers. On the Track carries a “very special thanks” to Jelly Roll Morton and Jimmie Rodgers, and indeed sounds like the offspring of the pioneering jazzman and the early hillbilly blues singer, with perhaps a bit of Bing Crosby tossed in. Aided by a s…
