Cane: Go to Home Depot/Garden Center.. Purchase a variety of bamboo poles. Cut them down to size with a hack saw or just leave them as.
Whip: Cut one of the thinner bamboo so you have a hollow tube. Buy some leather or cord straps and thread them thru the handle knotting them at the base so they don't slip out. Tape them if you want. Knot the business ends of leave them straight.
