Anyone here use a cane?

Honestly, I didn't give much thought to it as a weapon, other than the obvious "it's a stick" thing. Watching a few YouTube videos, I now realize that there's a bunch of people who specialize in the art of cane fighting. Now I'm second guessing my choice. At about 2lbs, my cane is stout for a walking stick, but maybe a bit slow as a weapon.
