Well that sucks, since I have need of a cane I was thinking about getting a Sword Cane, even though my state of Crapifornia bans them(what they don't know can't hurt me) I just love the thought of the look on scums face when they get surprised by their easy mark!
When we lived in Cali Mr. Megan would sometimes use a bamboo katana as his walking stick. See, it wasn’t an illegal sword cane, it was a perfectly legal cane sword.
