New walking/flipping/battle stick

My 2 daughters bought me a great wood walking stick with a carved bald headed eagle on top, but the bottom is lacking any type of tip. It has been prepped and is ready for the right one. Does anyone know where I can get any info, or a link to a site that sells high quaility staff tips? I know they make medallions and such that can be mounted onto the shaft, but I really need a good strong tip to do battle with the elements and the artifacts. Thanks for any help!

Try a search for Lee Valley Tools. They're in Canada, but I know they carry cane and staff tips with either a rubber end or a rock spike. Good machined brass, not cheap crap.
