[blindlaw] unrelated question, canes

[Steve Jacobson]

Jack,

Canes are such a personal choice that a word like "best" is hard to define.  However, you might want to ask the same question on NFB-Talk or Blind-Talk.  You 
might also include what you are looking for in a cane such as whether it must collapse, and which is more important, light weight or how long it lasts.  It probably isn't 
really on topic here unless you want to give your cane double duty as a cane and as a gavel to get order in the courtroom.
