I use a walking stick when hiking. It's the kind that has the removable pad that reveals a spike on the bottom for rougher terrain. Unfortunately, I haven't done much hiking this year because my hip pain level has surpassed that of my knee.

Walking stick?

When you say walking stick, I'm thinking a stick significantly longer than a cane...something that comes up to shoulder height or higher...a staff, if you will. A cane, on the other hand, typically, is the length of your wrist to the ground.
When hill-walking in the recent past I have used two trekking/walking poles, and probably should have taken to using them earlier. Very useful particularly when descending, but even though it is probably sensible to use the lightest (like carbon-fibre) I found that any fierce side wind could make their use problematic and more likely to trip one up - which happened to me once. Still have them so they might be used later in general although currently I am fine without.
Sometimes i use hiking poles while out walking, handy for poking around in vegetation and checking out mushrooms. Also I've never had to use them but they could be a handy weapon.
I thought this was going to be about the insect.

Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
The People's Republic here would immediately arrest either one possessing said canes.
They're common in Revoltistan.
Apparently, the People's Republic has no reach in West Virginia.
