Looking for a Cane

Post by Panday »

I'm looking for a straight, durable wood cane with a solid metal head (fritz or derby handles... possibly knob style if it's attractive enough). No sword canes, please.

I have some knives and blunt weapons I can trade. PM me if you have a cane that's taking up space.

Thank you.

Thanks, Will,

I've been looking something a little more traditional-looking with... I don't know... a stealth/subtle weapon characteristic: like an old malacca or rattan cane with a brass knob, for example.

Hoping that someone here has something in their attic, collecting dust and cobwebs.

Just found this site but I could not find my old warhammer walking stick.

I also had one that had a stylised axehead that was quite nice.

Ah here it is though mine was a bit different, it seems as though you can still get them and they are somewhat historical as far as their use for polish, hungarian and ukrainian woodsmen. They are called ciapaga (chu pa ga) in polish and are very ancient.
