Looking at Imperial Gunnery, there only seems to be one repro Emperors cane which is the painted version.
I've got a cane which sinks, and is not painted.
So, do all legit Emperor canes float? Are there legit examples that sink?
I'll post photos as soon as I can.
Thanks
Lewis

Hi Lewis as hard as we try to catalogue all known reproductions it is an ongoing battle. Yes there are unpainted ( moulded in black plastic) fakes that sink. All known originals float.
An example of a unpainted fake is here: http://www.imperialgunneryforum.com/t9008-more-reproductions-mexican
