Shop our Specials: Father's Day-June 17
A Patriot Cane is a walking cane that has been engineered into a more stable and safe cane. With a strategically-designed lower solid steel core shaft, Patriot Cane also provides self-protection. Our canes are built to support all peoples, without being politically oriented or being for or against any ideal or cause.
Background
My name is Ron; I am a Veteran with a special weapons background. I became interested in forming this business because I felt vulnerable while using an ordinary cane. Like most people who use a walking cane, I felt like a target, alerting criminals that I was less able to defend myself, thus easy prey.
I searched for a product that would provide self-protection and pack a punch, if needed. Not finding what I was looking for, I re-engineered the walking cane into providing better stability, safety and self-protection. The resulting product -- Patriot Cane -- was such a success that I decided to share it with others.
Variety of Styles and Themes
We have a variety of Patriot Canes ranging from the "Chronic Pain" cane and the "Chronic Queen" canes which support the legalization of cannabis/marijuana and the industry; our Lady Patriot Cane that shows support for Breast Cancer Awareness; a salute to our Country with a U.S. Flag cane or an American Pride cane; support for the Military with individual themed canes; and other causes and themes.
Being Prepared is Better than Being a Victim

Just ordered a cane from you. I'm 67 and female, wanted something I could also use as a weapon. Thanks so much for your service and sacrifices. @*****cat

@Patriot Cane ... thanks for the follow. I got one of your canes a while back. Tremendous cane. Great value, especially when you consider its extra utility. @The Freeload**
Dear Fellow Patriot -- Your Patriot Canes are awesome. You nailed it with your correct mind set of those who find themselves in need of support to walk. Vulnerable! These canes will give a boost of confidence to tough guys and gals who are adjusting to challenges with walking. @CroweCove
Please see more comments/reviews beneath each product listing.
Folks, I own one of these canes, and I will tell you that these things are very special. If you're in need of that "third leg" or you know someone who is, there is no better cane on the market. They're strongly built, but have the additional benefit of being a useful self-defense item, something useful when you visually fall into what predators think of as "prey." Sure, carry a concealed weapon, but remember that you will have this in your hand, and it will deliver powerful blows that will buy you the time to deploy that weapon. I'm so in favor of the idea that I bought mine before I have need for it. An older friend is having knee replacement surgery this summer, and when he can graduate to a cane, I'm buying him one. They're that good. @Freeholder
@Dogman1013 bought a U.S. Navy cane and writes: If you use a cane, I would strongly recommend checking out @PatriotCane products. Beautiful workmanship, attention to detail and better than any other on the market for self-defense. Don't let the chronic pain decide how you will live your life. PatriotCane can help you be more active while helping you stay safe and look stylish at the same time.

Decoration Day/Memorial Day
Memorial Day History
This U.S. federal holiday — becoming a national holiday in 1971 by an act of Congress -- is now celebrated on the last Monday in May to honor the men and women who have died while serving in the military. The 2018 date is Monday, May 28.
In early rural America the custom of honoring ancestors by cleaning cemeteries and decorating graves was usually performed in late summer and was an occasion for family reunions and picnics.
After the Civil War, America’s need for a secular, patriotic ceremony to honor its military dead became prominent, as monuments to fallen soldiers were erected and dedicated, and ceremonies centering on the decoration of soldiers’ graves were held in towns and cities throughout the nation.
After World War I, the day expanded to honor those who have died in all American wars.
The wearing of poppies in honor of America’s war dead is traditionally done on Memorial Day (not Veterans Day). The origin of the red poppy as a modern-day symbol of this day was actually the idea of an American woman, Miss Moina Michael.
In war-torn battlefields, the red field poppy was one of the first plants to grow. Its seeds scattered in the wind and sat dormant in the ground, only germinating when the ground is disturbed—as it was by the very brutal fighting during World War 1.
The practice of wearing poppies – which is the symbol of loss of life and of recovery and new life -- was further inspired by the poem “In Flanders Fields,” written in 1915 by Canadian soldier John McCrae. He saw the poppies in burials around his artillery position in Belgium.
“In Flanders Fields” by John McCrae, May 1915:
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.
National Moment of Remembrance: A resolution was passed in December 2000 which asks that at 3 p.m. local time, for all Americans “To voluntarily and informally observe in their own way a moment of remembrance and respect, pausing from whatever they are doing for a moment of silence or listening to ‘Taps.”
Difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day
Many people confuse Memorial Day and Veterans Day. Memorial Day is a day for remembering and honoring military personnel who died in the service of their country, particularly those who died in battle or as a result of wounds sustained in battle.
While those who died are also remembered, Veterans Day is the day set aside to thank and honor ALL who served—in wartime or peacetime—and whether they died or survived. Veterans Day is always observed officially on November 11, regardless of the day of the week on which it falls.
