Hi David,
Nice sword cane. It seems someone wanted a discreet weapon to walk with, rather than hanging from their hip.
It seems like a very well balanced and functional weapon.
At a glance, it looks as though it was meant to look like the Irish Blackthorn which was a common theme in the day for all sorts of walking sticks and canes.
Welsh is possible but I am not sure just how accurate that is, I'd be more inclined to just say English. The handle type is also a very UK/EU design.
Nothing says African in design, other than these blade types from the EU that were found far and wide.
The axe might be better placed in the EU forum?
