As a traveler who cannot always use my preferred self defense item. This cane provides some capability for self defense when traveling.
I purchased a hickory dojo cane, it's very strong. Mainly use it for ambulatory reasons because of an ankle injury. However because I practice arnis, I wanted a cane that would stand up to hard use. I think I will be ordering another finished cane for every day use.
I am a stage 4 brain cancer survivor and as a result of multiple surgeries / chemotherapy / radiation, my balance is greatly affected. I have had several falls resulting in serious head injuries and so I really wanted a quality cane I could trust. The Cane Masters Shadowhawk is a beautiful tool that will not only serve me by keeping me upright but also is a serious self defense option as well. I plan to order a 2nd cane in light hickory for variety. These canes will be my daily companions and I am proud to carry them. I chose to also get my nickname and social media handle engraved as this will be a lifetime purchase for me and an heirloom for my nephew someday.
I never thought I would need one but here I am. My Cane Masters Cane is perfect. It’s taking some getting used to but I’m getting more and more confident. The cane really helps.
If you’re going to get a cane , get a good one from the start. That way your not constantly wasting money.
I just received my 5th Cane Master’s cane. Why so many? I ordered a custom one first, along with the dojo practice cane. Then I got a walking cane for the dirt roads (everyday came). Next, I thought I should have gotten a Bird’s Head cane, so I ordered one of those. After more than a year, I realized that I loved the simple hook of my dojo cane, but I wanted a palm rest. Also, all the fancy grips on the other canes were a liability while practicing Sobrevivencia. So, yeah. I needed one more. :D This custom cane is by far my favorite! I splurged on the solid Hickory. Only thing I would have done differently - I should have gone with the gunstock brown (Tung oil looked too white). I ended up giving it 5 more coats of Tung oil at home, and it yellowed up a bit. Now, I store my collection upright in a custom rack I built for them, and I keep them oiled once a month. These canes are beautiful, functional, and a real game changer!
If you’re a Senior and you’re interested in self defense with a cane, check out Sobrevivencia (SV). Joe is a great instructor, and the “old man” from Cuba is an inspiration!!!
Super high quality cane, well balanced, perfectly sized and clear defensive strength all in one piece of art! I’m studying to master self defense now. Brilliant. I could not be happier.
I just received my cane about 15 minutes ago. This is a work of art and crystal eyes are beautiful. This was my 65th birthday present to myself. Very sturdy and isn’t what I was expecting….much better than any picture. Thank you Cane Masters.
Before I ordered a Build Your Own Cane Master cane, I wanted to see if the advertised quality was factual. It is, and more. I elected to finish it in Tung oil like the various videos, and it looks wonderful. I'll soon be ordering on that fits my desires and know I'll receive the Holy Grail of canes.
It took over two months for them to build this cane—undoubtedly because of a high number of orders over the Christmas holiday, but the wait was most definitely well worth it. This cane is both a very serviceable defensive tool and a beautiful work of art. It is very well made, being solid, well-balanced, attractive, and very strong. It is simply a superlative product that justifies both the wait and the expense.
I think it is invaluable in any situation where you need to protect yourself from attacks.
Carry it now on person and in my vehicle.
My wife and I recently received our his and hers Grand Master canes in pure hickory heart wood with crimson stain. Very impressive work, good feel.
Very Pleased, with my Great Quality made USA Hickory Cane. Took some time to receive, but worth the Wait and Cost. The Craftsmanship was Perfect, like the color of the Stained Hickory and I know my new cane will last for Decades. Thank You Cane Masters!
I love my cane,I've spent lots of $$ on different ones but when these showed up I will never use another cane but this one..it helps me in all movements an activities I do plus fits perfectly..Best Cane I'll ever have an use..THANKS TO CANE MASTERS, IVE REFERED YALL TO MY DOCTORS AND FRIENDS
I love the feel and the support of it. I use it when I take the dogs to the dog parts and I get rave compliments about. It is part of my routine at the dog part. It is among one of my favorites.
As a Veteran, a Retired State Law Enforcement Officer, and a lifelong student of six different martial arts disciplines, finding myself now permanently disabled I have found adjusting to a new and difficult life a difficult transition. Accepting the fact that I really needed a cane after consulting my doc I sought out a cane that represented certain aspects from my life while also being rugged, solid and something I could rely on in a difficult situation. The Cane Masters Veteran's Cane hits all those marks while also looking sharp. I opted for the crimson finish, hickory for greater strength, the copper cap to protect the wood from adverse weather conditions and added the palm rest for both everyday function and for greater control in a defensive role. I also ordered a few of the heavy duty cane tips for improved traction in snow and icy conditions.
I am very pleased with the quality, appearance and function of this cane even though I wish I didn't need it. Highly recommend the Cane Masters Veteran's Cane to all my brothers and sisters out there.
Fantastic work of art. Fine craftsmanship and the very best select hardwoods. These canes are superior to others and well worth the cost. I absolutely love my Cane Master self defense Cain. I go no where without it!! Study and practice the self defense tactics taught on their website, it could save your life.
