Unfortunately I use one also from time to time. Most times I can get along without it, but if the walk is long enough then it gets used as my legs take a breather. If I brought along a chair the cane wouldn't be required. 
I like handmade. Nice.
They have other uses besides the obvious. And due to liability and the ADA they can't be taken away, not even when boarding an aircraft. Just never refer to it as a weapon or they can take it. I mostly carry a heavy one with a meat hook on the end I hold. Too, some designs are illegal in some states. Maine is fairly open minded but closed minded when it comes to a shillelagh and the grasping ball (weight) on the end.
