The dueling cane begins as a simple, metal-capped wooden staff favored by Allomancer Thugs in The Well of Ascension, serving as a reliable melee weapon for close-quarters combat. By the time of The Lost Metal, the weapon has evolved into a versatile tool that integrates with advanced Allomantic techniques, reflecting the changing nature of warfare in the post-Catacendre era. Its presence across multiple books underscores its enduring utility as both a practical weapon and a symbol of the evolving combat traditions in the Mistborn universe.
