I play them at their own game, YES I only carry a UK legal knife now in town, BUT I had put a razor edge on the bexel of my EDC flashlight and I also keep my steel tactical pen clipped to my polo neck shirt. And this hint of arthritis in my knee means I can get away with carrying an alloy hiking pole.

Cold Steel are making some quite nice walking sticks too. Be stronger than an alloy pole, but fairly pricey in comparison.
Tactical pen I always have in my pocket too, starting to leave the UK legal knives at home now, do have an esee arrowhead on me at all times instead.

Please correct me if I am wrong but I am led to understand that it is perfectly legal to have a walking stick with you as it is regarded as an 'aid' rather than an offensive weapon.
Given some 'training' I would think that it could be very beneficial with regard to personal defence.

My grandfather used to have a wonderful old swordstick. I'm sure they would be illegal, but one hell of a weapon.

I have got one MN and yes they are very illegal if you are out side with them

But a high quality umbrella ( not the cheap mass produced Chinese junk) the type with a solid shaft and steel, alloy or brass furniture IS legal and its easy to sharpen the tip on them AND they bodies are strong enough to make a decent short staff.
