read the Lutte Parisian article in the skills section. Seems savate has the grapple.

Also check out the La canne video on this page

I think The Journal of Manly Arts had some old turn of the century article on european cane work.

Those canes were pretty badass. Hickory with a metal core.

During "the commune", history reports the use of cannes with blades hidden in them, that was some gentleman weapon. Obvious anyway... ^^
