Hi
as far as I know, (I resided for job during 3 years in Basque country)
no conventional martial art with a "makila"
makila it's considered as weapon, not only as a walking stick
- in the handle, normally, is a dagger hidden ... inside
- the head, it's a real "war club" ... a "mace"

French law forbid to person, to carry this type of cane, considered as "weapons of category 6th"
ability to purchase it, ability to have it at home,
in case of transport, must be packed inside a luggage, or a transport bag

" Dura lex, sed lex " (The law is hard, but it's the law)
