Description: This wonderful Victorian knobkerrie, also known as a headknocking cane, is actually a defensive weapon. It dates from the second half of the nineteenth century and was carried to act as a bludgeon if necessary. Just lift it and you'll see why! The silver plated bronze handle measures 4-1/4 x 3-1/4 inches and depicts a very focused fox hound on one hound and a fox on the other. An attractive period monogram graces the collar. An ebony shaft and 1-1/2 inch bi-metal tip complete the cane. Overall length is 36 inches.
