What I find interesting is the iron end spike. These spikes are found on the back end of many types of Ingorot spears and this example does show some age to it. So my guess is they used a cut down spear shaft to construct this walking stick. Some parts may be older than WW2 but does look like a GI bring back. So this seems like a composite of old and vintage pieces the rattan does not have the proper patina of an older piece. Still it is a nice example.
