This excellent video does NOT needany kind of background "music" - it serves no purpose. It is annoying at best and should never be used while narrating. Otherwise, the clear and cleanly spoken narration was one of the best I have heard on RU-vid.
Thank you for your feedback! We appreciate your kind words about the narration. We understand that not everyone enjoys background music, and we will certainly take your preference into consideration for future videos. Our goal is to create content that is enjoyable and informative for all viewers, so we value your input.
Agree 100 percent. Very good video. No need for background music. It is distracting. Enjoy your instruction and I intend to purchase one of your canes in the very near future.
There are also the advantages of FEWER legal hassles in the event of an encounter (you're not so liable for damages as with a gun) It has REACH advantages-- and that reach advantage also gives you a SPEED advantage... (the end of the cane is moving FASTER than your hands and increases power of the strike) , and you can take it ANYWHERE.. NO ammo to carry is there would be with a gun- NO PERMITS to get as with a gun- Makes it EASIER to handle multiple attackers. and one thing you for SURE won't get with a gun- cane is STYLISH!!! (beautiful designs, etc. ) and SO much more.
Agree with your reason #1 - Mobility, #2 - as a non-lethal defensive means, #3 - I can carry a cane everywhere, I can't carry a cop, afford a body guard 24/7, or a sidearm or rifle everywhere for defending myself or my family, #4 - I can allow my grandchildren to handle it and show them how to protect themselves safely without injuring themselves.....well, at least minimize the chances of them hurting themselves.
Outstanding. Pre-Gulf For decades I was trying to solve Dan Inisantos' 21' rush. The one time I was attacked, in an unscheduled training, I had to use hand to use my hand, I had a report in my other hand. Once it registered I was about to "stop" the scenerio. The teaining officers yield "Stop!!!". T.O. asked me some questions after failing to get inside twice. Separate incident- I was reprimanded for going for my thin straight preferred baton when a person drew a knife. I was always trouble why the other guys would go for their g*ns right away. You solved the 21' question. Thank you so much, I was on the right track without knowing it. DAV
I have 2 of your canes, one in each vehicle, for the same reasons you do. I also found out that there isn’t enough room, for two people, to assist a third person that has fallen. With the assistance of the cane, it can be offered to the fallen person, to latch hold of, and will be determined by the fallen person, weather an ambulance should be called, or not. My 92 year old mother thought she was going to sit down on a bench, which wasn’t there, and ended up, sliding down the wall, instead. Two people in their 70’s, will have great difficulty assisting someone on the floor, because of lack of room to reach her at the same time, and could inadvertently injure her, without knowing. The notches on your cane help with gripping, from either end. Thanks, Vietnam Vet, 1968, 173 rd Airborne Brigade.
Concealed carry cowboys are why I started to carry a cane. I've lost count of how many loudmouths have had their unloaded edc skid across the floor because they couldn't shut up about being hardass and I called them on it. Being underestimated is one of my greatest weapons.
Love your videos, thank you. Suggestion, turn off the background music. Quickly the music becomes extremely annoying, we came to hear you, we are not here to fight the music. Many of us have hearing difficulties thus the music makes it difficult to understand you.
I have made a few walking canes for myself in the past. How can I get one of those cards for my personal cane that I have made. I have never been asked why I have a cane, but that card may come in handy one day.
Grandmaster Keith, When the pandemic has subsided, I plan to visit Florida. Hopefully, I'll be there in the Fall of this year. Do you have a retail outlet where a person can actually see and handle the canes before purchasing one ? Gary Hernandez told me to contact him when I get down there so I can get face to face instruction, but I have no problem driving down to Miami to purchase a cane. Tom Nugent
@@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes Keith, Gary told me that he plans to have another Cane Seminar in late Winter or early Spring. I plan to attend, and will spend a few weeks or a month in Florida. I will take you up on your gracious offer. Hurricane season will be long over and I would rather visit Florida when it is cold up here in the New York area. In fact, Gary is scheduled to test me tomorrow night so I can get the Intermediate rank in his RDT Cane system. By the way, you and I share something besides an interest in Martial Arts and Caning. I was an Army ROTC grad, and retired as an LTC from the US Army Reserves. Thanks again, Tom Nugent
What exercise routine do you do with the cane? Is there a video? I'm about to buy a custom cane and the American Cane System 1-8 DVD set from you in a couple of weeks.
Let's not forget, that a cane was always carried by English gentlemen, the length and breadth of the British empire, defending one's owner from rabid dogs on the streets of Calcutta , deadly vipers in Malaysian rubber plantations to the various miscreants that plagued Victorian London streets.
The right to bear arms should include the sword cane, with a twist of the handle a quick parry and lunge, a means to "run one though"any vagabond who has foolishly chosen to set upon you.
A member of antifa found out the hard way not to push a cane instructor with a canemasters cane! I warned him that I was disabled and shouldn't be touched!
Hi there! There are so many way on how to use a cane for self-defense, knowledge and skills matter as well as constant practice. You can email us at info@canemasters.com if you need anything.
Our canes are mobility tools and are protected in the US by HIPPA and ADA. Any tool may be used legally as intended, or with bad behavior may serve as a weapon. A baseball bat is legal to own and use properly... but in the wrong hands may become a weapon. However, it is the irresponsible actions of the user that is prosecutable.
At Cane Masters we only sell canes that are legal to carry and use. If you want to look at interesting Cold War spy gadgets, take a look at my book ULTIMATE SPY (by H Keith Melton) on Amazon.
The HIPPA Privacy Act refers to the privacy of your medical information. The Americans With Disability Act (ADA) protects your right to carry an ambulatory tool, such our Cane Masters canes.
Is the purchase acceptable using my health benefits credit card that I have and only use for medical purposes? It’s a Visa. The card is Navia Benefits Debit Card. I tried to purchase it online but it didn’t work.
Hi there, I suggest try placing your cane order on our website and using that card. We do accept major credit cards. If you need further assistance, you can book a cane consultation here: canemasters.com/pages/cane-consultation
You can carry a cane anywhere. Airplane, court house, doctor's office, you name it. The thing I don't like about CM canes is they insist on putting their martial arts logo on it. I have found other suitable hardwood canes.
The Cane Masters logo is not automatically added to any cane. Years ago canes were produced differently... we now hand-craft each of our canes here in Florida...
WHERE can I get a MOBILITY card for NOW-- I'd like to have one BEFORE I get the training etc.. I"m on SS and it may be a bit yet before I can get the training. (i've had cane traning in hapkido - my 4th degree black belt is in hapkido, 5th in kenpo, wing chun instructor, jeet kune do instructor- aikido 5th black. -- and most of that is USELESS for me now. I was mashed between two trucks in 99 and have lots of pain- (hence the cane).. and NONE of that stuff is something I'm really ABLE to do much any more.
@@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes THANKS- I've saved it and will get one after payday-- nothing left right now..ha. (too much month left at the end of the money..)
Do you still have the right to carry a cane, if you have no mobility issues at the time. Maybe you did before or you might later and want the cane handy.
If you use a cane-- you will NOT accidentally SHOOT THROUGH the attacker and kill an innocent person behind them--- and are NOT as likely as going to jail as with a gun - which is an automatic jail time till the court date. IF some fool is video taping the incident- the cane- in court- LOOKS DEFENSIVE-- the gun is AUToMATICALLY figured as OFFENSIVE and is up to YOU to prove otherwise. YOU do NOT need to conceal it- as with a gun.. and you can EXERCISE with it as a tool.. (kinda tricky to do with a gun!)
who is rude enough to ask a old man why he walks with a cane it´s a question for obviously healthy men under 50 excuse my disrespect but that was quite immersion breaking
Physical infirmities often afflict those under 50 as well... and sometimes there is no obvious visual indicator to a heart of lung problem, or problems with balance.
@@CaneMasters-WalkingCanes i know, i excused myself because you are not a great choise paying "thouse under 50", nobody who is responsible for themselves would ask you
