I found a secret DEADLY cane sword when i restored it. (not wood carving)

Very antique walking stick with secret sword (rapier or stylet) in the inner of the wood sheath.
It was made in Toledo, Spain on 1850, in those times they made the sword with the best European steel and use the damascus steel handmade technics.
The ornaments are pure silver alloy, and the wood is a very hard but with high tooghness (impact resistance), maybe is Ash wood, very good quality for conformation (permanet deformation). Ash tree is very common on Spain, is a very tooghness wood.
I used becarfuly a sand paper for remove the old varnish and smoth the surface (no wood carving)

I found a secret DEADLY cane sword when i restored it. (not wood carving)

[@daxroger3075]

This is the perfect cane sword in my opinion. Light weight and nimble. So many are clunky and heavy making them useless for alot of people who might otherwise want and use one. I like that you cant tell with this one.

[@StainlessIdea]

This is an amazing self defense weapon, nobody think that it is a sword. Very light with incredible sharp end like a nail.

[@patrickseaman]

Agreed. I bought one from an online site - it is heavy and the sword clanks around inside it loudly.

@@StainlessIdea : Mr. Matt Easton , the man behind ,Scholagladiatora' channel, a dealer of military antiques, and expierienced fencer, and for more than twenty years active in Hema, and for years a trainer in historic fencing is no fan of sword canes.

[@lairdcummings9092]

@@brittakriep2938 the first rule of self defense weapons: *have* a weapon. This meets that need, and being lightweight, is more likely to be on your person when you need it.

[@brittakriep2938]

@@lairdcummings9092 : My comment was not exact enough. Mr. Easton thinks, the fact that a swordcane has no guard ( in german Parierstange) , which makes selfdefence more difficult than with a ordinary sword, and after reading old newspapers writing about swordcanes, the quality was often cheap. Well in an era , when most men had a cane, there had been canes for weapon use, or canes, with unusual features, once i saw the cane of a cattle trader, it contsined no blade, but a measurement rod (?)to see the height of cattle.

Toledo's steel is no joke. I'm from Toledo, and I have 3 old handmade swords made here, and centuries later they're still sharp and strong.

[@StainlessIdea]

you know that! very luxury steel, i am metallurgist, this steel was made with very low impurities and low imperfection, to much plastic deformation for increace the tooghness and harder by cold work deformation. In spanish Acritud (endurecimiento por trabajar en frio), excelente tenacidad.

Congratulations sir! That's a beautiful sword cane you got there

[@lairdcummings9092]

I have a sword-cane... Well, no, I have a spike-cane. It's not as nice as this one, but it's got the necessary bits. Roughly 17" (~43cm) triangular spring-steel spike with a strong distal taper. Technically, it *does* have a cutting edge, though cutting butter would be a challenge. Really, it's just a pointy-stabby "go bother someone else" device. Honestly, the cane shaft is the real weapon, being 30" (~75cm) of very dense hardwood - an entirely credible fighting baton. Anyway, this inspires me to do a bit of cleanup and restoration.

[@kirbywaite1586]

Typical ignorant person who acquires something old and beautiful and then removes all the charm and character from it. They do it to furniture and other objects,as well. There's an entire channel devoted to it. I've seen ancient bronzes polished and buffed until they're as bright as a new penny! It's sad.

[@allangibson2408]

@@kirbywaite1586 The ancient bronzes were originally polished to a mirror finish (and frequently gold plated) just like all the Roman and Greek marble statues were painted in brilliant colours. “Patina” is simply lack of maintenance due to ignorance of the original design and artists intent (like candle soot on paintings).

[@kirbywaite1586]

@@allangibson2408 Yes, but tastes change after the passage of a few thousand years. The appreciation of the effects.of age are an acquired taste, but then aren't all tastes? You certainly wouldn't want to see marble statues repainted in their original colors, would you? That would be quite garish. Certainly Michelangelo would not have painted his marble sculpture. That would have run quite contrary to contemporary tastes. Patination of bronze has a long history and tradition. It's not likely the bronzework of the Renaissance was polished. Both the Chinese and the Japanese also have a tradition of darkening their copper, brass and bronze. Your analogy of ' sooty paintings" is not a good argument. Dirt is not the same thing as oxidation. The surface of the paint has not changed as a result of age. On the other hand the highly prized crackleur that occurs in very old oil paint is a product of age. Would you advocate filling in and touching up the cracks in order to make a painting look new? And of course, beautiful old picture frames are generally conserved in the same manner. Fortunately, it is standard museum practice to not polish ancient artifacts. Perhaps items of silver or gold would be an exception, but then gold doesn't tarnish anyway. I certainly hope that practice continues.

I have a cane with a round 'globe' type head. It contains a 3 faceted blade with a sharp point. The cane is about 30", and the blade somewhat less, around 20". It came home from WW1 to England with my Great Uncle Harry. He hid it under a large bandage contrived to look like a war wound. After WW2, in 1946 my Grandmother, Harry's sister, traveled from the States with my 12 yr old Dad to visit the family that had suffered much from the war. Harry took a liking to my Dad, and gave my Dad the cane as a memento. Its only in fair condition but has been safe in storage for years. If any have any interest in the sword, send a reply. PS: Great video, it just popped up in recommendations.
