Are there any other students of the cane as a martial arts weapon here?
Thanks to bum knees, having a cane handy has become a necessity. I have recently acquires a fine hickory cane from http://www.canemasters.com , along with some training videos.
I'd never trade my cane for a S&W .357, but neither would I want to be on the receiving end of a shellacking with my cane.
It is made from heart hickory with a teardrop cross section, which gives it a viscious striking edge. The maker says he calls it "tear drop" becuse when you whack someone across the shin it will bring tears. The point of the crook has a single sharp point and there is a hand grip on the shaft just below the crook.
Any one in search of a less lethal weapon, and sharing my distrust of gas, should visit the Cane Master website, and give them a call. Master Mark Shuey is quite a gentleman and a pleasure to talk with.
