It boasts a superb linear tapering sleek profile and a fearsome pointed tip. -This cane is marked by a discreet profile that makes it a perfect disguised, defense weapon and enjoys the merits of a great feel of age. -The passage of time endowed it with the indefinable and cherished personality of great collectables. Notable is that sword canes rarely come in this quality and were a popular fashion accessory for the wealthy and for upper-class men routinely trained in swordsmanship who wished to go armed for self-defense. -H. 5 ½” x 3 ¼”, O.L. 35 ¾” -$800-$1,200 -The swordstick was a popular fashion accessory for the wealthy during the 18th and 19th centuries. During this period, it was becoming less socially acceptable to openly carry a sword, but there were still upper-class men routinely trained in swordsmanship who wished to go armed for self-defense. Swords concealed in ladies’ walking sticks and parasols were also not unknown, as it was even less socially acceptable for a lady to carry a sword, or publicly admit that she knew how to use one. -Soon after their introduction, other „gadget canes“ became popular. Instead of a blade, these would hold the tools of one’s trade, compasses, and even flasks for keeping alcohol. There were special swordsticks that had guns installed in the hilt. But the use was unlikely. -In many jurisdictions the ownership, carrying, manufacturing or trading in sword canes is restricted by law.
