hmm

There is going to be some things that are allowed that are currently banned. I dont know what the issue is with the walking stick that you are posting about. Is there a link to a picture?

well

canes are allowed. The only things that I have seen that are not allowed in that area are kenpo sticks that were claimed to be canes, ski poles and you item. IT currrently wont be allowed because it is not a cane. As for in the future, we are waiting to see the new list.
