Using a walking cane for self defense

[knotytjhing]

A Campbell Cane could be an interesting senior defense device. I was asked last year about designing a cane that could be functional, artistic and defensive. The latest design fits this description. I was involved in martial arts in the 60's..now I am way over 60. I would not want to be on the other end.

its all depends on what you need, i walk almost everywhere or ride my bike so i learned judo/wrestling to get the attacker as far away as possible, also ive been studying self defense with a walking stick, such as above for about 2 years

I am interested... what kind of walking stick do you use.. a specially made one? Do you study escrima? Are all the fighting canes used the traditional curved kind or do you use a walking stick (straight variety - escrima) Thanks

i used a curved top, its much more comfortable for me, the curve its a very useful tool

WEAK, do tae kwon do, i got black betl in it and its much quicker..

tae kwon do is a waste of time and energy, though it is powerful it is not the best style to learn.

Great, so you have a belt that keeps your pants up.
