to me, a "cane" has a curved handle. The ones pictured do not, so that's why I called them walking sticks. It seems to me from reading period romances, etc., that gentlemen carried walking sticks, or "sticks," too.
Canes are alive, too--that's what you call a "stalk" of bamboo, isn't it?
I was going to look this up in my mega dictionary at home, but forgot.
