Hi I got this at a thrift store as someone must have collected old canes as they had some pretty nice ones. I liked this particular cane as the wood and style was nice. I am trying to figure out if this was a weapon kind of cane/walking stick. as the handle is handmade brass and heavy and looks like it could do some damage. Also type of wood that it may be made of. maybe any guesses of the age as well. Any help is appreciated. Size is 34 inches. No hallmarks on the piece.
