WW1 RFC (Royal Flying Corps) cane sword stick.
I know that it is WW1 British and dates from 1912 to 1916. The top is marked RFC. Both tips as well as the part where it separates is brass. The blade is more of a four sided thrusting spike than a sharp edged sword. Just wondering if anyone could give me a ballpark value.

These were actually made in fairly large numbers for all branches of the armed forces as cane/swagger sticks. The Swagger sticks, depending on their provenance, often sell in the $100.00- $300.00 range.

It isnt a swagger stick as it is the length of a cane and has a hidden sword.

I couldn’t find any like this with the sword except this same one on Etsy. Maybe a place like this would have an idea of worth or at least what they’d give you for it https://www.jbmilitaryantiques.com.au/
