The Black cane is obtained as a reward from Level 1 treasure trails. Only level 8 Attack is needed to equip this item, as opposed to standard blackitems, which require level 25. It is not used often as a weapon, since its damage is lower than an iron mace, and its accuracy is equivalent to a bronze mace. Despite its low stats, some players use it as a display of wealth. The black cane is often worn with elegant clothing in a further show of wealth, such as a top hat, black elegant costume, and pirate boots to create the look of a wealthy gentleman. Like other black items, a black cane cannot be made. Like all treasure trail items, the cane can be stored in a Treasure chest in a Player-owned house.
This cane is topped with a cut sapphire gem. The cane is popular because of its looks, going well with black clothing. As a result, its price has risen and now sells for substantially more than its adamant and rune counterparts, despite them being both better weapons and rewards from higher-level treasure trails. On closer inspection, the main body of the cane is in fact a very dark blue colour.
As with all black equipment, this item cannot be made from raw materials using the Smithing skill.
