Twisted Aromatic Cedar Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Anyone that does any real hiking at all knows the value of having a good walking stick along. To see someone just strolling up an easy walking path with the stick keeping time it may seem like its just a decorative and nostalgic item. But in truth a walking stick evolved from its many uses that one encounters when walking or hiking a wilderness trail. It helps one keep their balance on uneven trails, crossing a stream, traversing hillsides, and can even help with taking some of the weight off your feet when carrying a heavy load. Anyone who hikes with a stick will easily fill in a number of good uses that they will naturally encounter. Everything from brushing aside briars and thick foliage to preventing a fall and being the centerpiece of your tent. Over the years I have owned perhaps a dozen or more walking sticks, all of which have been made from good strong branches I have found along the trail. I enjoy stripping and sanding the sticks myself, and then varnishing them to a high tough shine. I never considered actually buying one for real use on hikes.
This past Christmas I got this cedar stick as a gift. Usually I would consider any store bought walking stick to be of a decorative nature. I have another one that I picked up years back that is nice to look at but not very functional. This cedar stick is definitely an exception. It is a very handsome looking and solid staff, as well as strong enough for actual use on a real hike. Unlike some of the other walking sticks available here on Amazon, this stick is completely stripped where you grip it and buffed down to a very smooth surface. (An absolute essential when doing rugged hiking since the slightest bump or imperfection where you grip the staff will become terribly irritating over time). It is just thick enough for most people to form a good solid hold on without it being flimsy, and it takes a good amount of pressure to bend it. Indeed, its twisted design actually offers the benefit of giving it added strength over a straight stick. Cedar never rots, so even if you use this stick for some very heavy wilderness hiking and the finish wears off, it will not deteriorate and lose strength. So feel free to refinish it many times over. At the time of this writing it came in 3 different lengths, so you can tailor it to yourself or for the recipient. (I recommend purchasing the 55" stick for most folks. Better to be too long than too short).
In conclusion, whether you are in the market for a rustic addition to your den, or actually are interested in a store bought stick for everyday use or hiking, I highly recommend this cedar stick. It is in my opinion that it is very much worth the price asked, and that you will be very pleased with its looks, strength, and usefulness...

Each stick is then carefully cut to size, sanded, and sprayed with a protective clear coat lacquer. The resulting staff is lightweight, beautiful, and highly functional.The Twisted Aromatic Cedar Waking Stick's unique characteristics make it an ideal companion for general walking and hiking. (One caveat: the Twisted Aromatic Cedar is not a hardwood and tends to be softer than most woods.)

36" Sumac Root Walking Stick Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I had been looking for a rustic looking walking stick, yet heavy enough to support my husband. This was just the item I was looking for. My biggest fear was it would not be heavy. I was thrilled when it arrived I found it to be sturdy! I loved the design. The handle is also easy for him to grip and also provides that sense of support he needs. He didn't not want a traditional cane nor did he want anything with ball on the top that you see in most rustic designs. This was perfect!

Stoney Point Chub's Choice Monopod, Grey Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The SPP Chubbs Choice consists of three sections held together with shock cord. Each piece fits loosely into the next. After one week of use, the shock cord broke at the point where it secured inside one end section. No field repair was possible.
The length of the SPP Chubbs Choice is set by a telescoping section that is locked by elaborate maneuvers involving turning one piece inside the other and sliding a third piece into place. No directions were given, and no useful advice was available from technical support on the telephone. I eventually figured it out, but I will not bother to explain because the whole thing disintegrates.
Save your money and, more important, do not rely on this product.
