"I had a problem with the shipping. product is very impressive."
"Lightweight and sturdy, my Night Watchman Cane went from a nice-to-have to a frequent necessity as my knees became traitors. It has held up so well with daily use, and still looks sharp."
"I use a cane and have several in my collection. Because the design of this cane is unobtrusive and attracts little attention it's my "every day carry". .The construction is sturdy, the handle has a hard point and the sword point is sharp.. Hopefully not, but in a confrontation the cane iis an effective club a the sword isa formidable thrusting weapon. I am very pleased with my purchase."
"Liked that it's solid, heavy duty. Great as a club! Which is good because it's as sharp as a butter knife."
"This is a nice sword cane, the only problem I have is it did not come with an edge. I could run my hand down the edge with no concern about getting cut, I'm talking duller than a butter knife. For the money they should have sharpened it."
"There is some rattle and the blade is nowhere near "razor-sharp." The tip is a quite sharp point. It does feel solid. The sale price is about right."
"The cane itself seems nice enough pretty solid the handle is nice has a nice point on it but to be honest very disappointed in the blade it's about as sharp as the backside of a butter knife I don't think you could cut anything with it you could probably give someone a nasty bruise but other than that I guess it's okay like I said it's okay but not great"
"Okay, I really like the design of this cane. It feels really sturdy, quite hefty. But it's not without a few flaws, but fixable. For one, it's not for short people, and they really should find a way for customers to customize the height of this thing. For the sake of convenience. Another thing is, though it doesn't rattle as you walk with it, any small bump to the side of the cane causes the blade to clang against the inside, which is very noticeable. I fixed it by putting in a cardboard tube to about half of the shaft from the bottom, which keeps it from making that metal on metal sound. Then the blade is kind of wiggles a bit, not much, but it's a screw issue. One of them at the top seems loose, might need replaced, but that's no real issue also. Even further, drawing this thing is a pain because the O rings keep a tight seal, which causes air suction while drawing, which requires a hole in the cane tip on the bottom. Makes it a lot easier to draw, and doesn't make it any easier to fall out accidently. But you don't get that popping sound, nor need to fight against air pressure to draw the blade. Other than that, it's a really nice product. Feels really solid, and it's not obvious to anyone that it might have a blade unless they already know what this particular cane is and what it looks like. It's really balanced, and once I sharpen the blade, I'm sure it'll cut pretty well. It does even with it as dull as it is upon shipping, just not so well. I'd recommend this to anyone concerned about personal defense without being conspicuous to the casual onlooker. And as stated by many, cane sword are mostly illegal to carry in most states, and you can't even own one in others. Always check with your local county, and state laws before buying, but the risk seems pretty low versus the reward."
"Cane is fantastic, only problem is, it is very hard to draw. Need to find a way to relieve some of the pressure to draw easier."
"At first I was sceptical. When I removed it from the box I thought there is now way this blade will cut well. It has a pronounced secondary bevel and is almost to heavy in the grip. Boy was I wrong. This blade blew right through the box it came in as if it weren't even there. The edges of the cut are some what rough but, none the less it passed through unweighted, heavy card board with zero, and I mean zero resistance. Berry well done. I am extremely impressed. For a thrust oriented blade, make mistake, it will cut just as well."
