It's a cool idea that I've given quite a lot of thought to in the past but never gotten round to trying, If it were me, here's what I'd do: I should note that I did do a little google searching to see if I could answer my question before I asked it but most of the results I saw were of the "tacti-cool" variety and not suitable for historical impressions. I'm just kinda spitballing here with my thinking so I'd appreciate any more knowledgeable folk than I popping in to lend their thoughts. At my height of 6'5" any walking staff would be tall enough to pull double duty. If the head is detachable, I could just stow it away in my pack until I'm well enough in the wild. Really, I just had the idea of a walking staff and thought I'd see if I could make it a bit more suitable for ranging. Is there any way that a detachable spear point would be a feasible thing? Obviously they wouldn't be as sturdy as the real thing but I can't say that I'm likely to come across many orcs roaming my local state parks. So I had the thought of perhaps disguising a spear as a weapon and utilizing it as a practical walking staff. Man in a cloak carrying a sword = time to alert the real park rangers. So weaponry isn't really my forte (aside from my bow) and truth be told, in the real world when I go hiking a sword seems for trouble than its worth.
