Toledo Sword Cane with Silver Knob Handle

Toledo Sword Cane with Silver Knob Handle
Late 19th century

A lethal Toledo steel sword is hidden within the bamboo shaft of this French walking stick. A pull on the chased silver knob releases a double-edged sword with two handguards that spring out into position. Exuding the elegance associated with the name, the Toledo blade is engraved with a beautiful foliate motif, belying its deadly precision.

Deriving its name from the Spanish city where it originated, Toledo steel has been used to create fine swords since around 500 BCE. The existence of this high-quality alloy came to the attention of Rome during the Punic Wars, and soon, the city became a supplier of weapons to the Roman Legions.
