African Walking Stick 37 in. Review

African Walking Stick 37 in.
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I recenty acquired this stick for the express purpose of carrying it while walking my dogs. Lets face it, it is designed as a discreet weapon. As such, I was very impressed with it. The polypropylene is extremely resillient giving the stick plenty of strength yet keeping the weight down. I usually carry it tucked under one arm swagger stick-style but do use it for weight bearing when traversing inclined terrain. My one and only criticism of the stick is the unique polygonal handle. When used extensively as a true walking support item, the shape tends to press a bit uncomfortably on the palm. Those seeking a true walking aid might be better suited using a pistol grip style handle for weight support. With that said, the polygonal handle is very rugged and well suited for devastating target areas if the weapon was to be used for combat purposes. One other minor point of note, this stick is VERY intimidating and could draw unwanted police attention depending on your area. The Cold Steel Blackthorn stick might look somewhat more natural and draw less attention.
In conclusion, this stick is awesome and I will rarely leave home without it. Already just brandishing it at a pack of wild dogs was enough to fend off a potential attack. Considering the price and durability of this stick, I would highly recommend it. Perfect for the average person strolling about, just a tad uncomfortable on the palm for those needing a true weight bearing walking stick. For the price, you can't go wrong.

Twisted Aromatic Cedar Review

Twisted Aromatic Cedar
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...

The Twisted Aromatic Cedar Walking Stick is easily one of the most resplendent hiking staffs in our line. Its red and purplish hues, often coupled with cream-colored sapwood, swirl beautifully down this staff, while our trademark twist, with its subtle elegance, accentuates the natural beauty of this unique hiking stick.To bolster its stability, we make the Twisted Aromatic Cedar Walking Stick from three pieces of 3/8-inch, laminated aromatic cedar board. 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.)

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!

I really was. I'm crafty and generally will make this sort of thing, but we don't have hickory in the NW...and Cedar isn't hard enough to take the abuse of my 6 year old. Sure it smells nice, but can it handle fighting off imaginary bears and sasquatch, or helping to save mommy from an ogre? No...but, Hickory can. I was concerned because the pith beneath the bark looked a little green...and therefore, raw and unseasoned. But I think it's just the wood...maybe someone else can ellaborate.

Stoney Point Chub's Choice Monopod, Grey Review

Stoney Point Chub's Choice Monopod, Grey
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.

I ordered a Hickory Walking Stick and got something made of Bianbai Wood. What??? Try doing a search for Bianbai Wood. I'm not even sure there is such a thing. And even if there is, I bought hickory. The product information states that they are the "largest supplier in the U.S." and that the product is "handcrafted from wood in the U.S." In truth, the product is shipped from Canada and Made in China. "Handcrafted from wood in the U.S"...I've never seen, much less heard of a tree called a Bianbai...oh wait, the back of the tag says it is made from "All New Material"...hmmm, maybe that's it. It's a brand new tree, but again, I paid for hickory. Like the other reviewer said, the bottom isn't finished either. He said they skipped finishing his under the tip, on mine it's the bottom 10 inches. it goes from a nice, dark brown finish to blonde bare wood. To be fair, it does seem sturdy and it has a good feel to it. Lightweight also. I just expect to get what is advertised, as I'm sure you do as well. I will keep the staff because I'm leaving on a hiking trip next week. However, I will not buy anything from this company again. Companies need to learn that we can just as easily buy our things from others. This is false advertisement at best. Oh, I almost forgot, it does come with a flower etched into it. Wish I would have read that review before I bought it, because the pic doesn't show it and it isn't mentioned in the description. I'm a guy. I don't like flowers on my stuff. If you wanna buy a walking staff that is nothing like it is portrayed in the description, made of bianbai wood, and made in china, well then this is perfect for you.

Tracks Lite Walking Staff - In Your Choice of Sizes Review

Tracks Lite Walking Staff - In Your Choice of Sizes
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have owned the Tracks Lite Walking Staff for over 15 years. I have arthritis in my hands, ankles and knees. The pole is extremely light weight - 10 ounces for the 48 inch length. I can carry it without fatigue for an extended hike. The walnut knob is smooth and perfect for resting my hand on the top of the pole while descending, so I don't have to maintain a painful grip on the pole. The aircraft aluminum has been more than strong enough for any amount of weight I've put on it and shows no fatigue. The wrist strap is comfortable and works well for either supporting my weight on my wrist, or letting the pole drag loosely behind me as I crawl around rocks or trees. With the 48 inch length I have been able to strap it to the side of my backpack without interfering with walking. I am 5'6" and the 48" length works well for either ascending or descending steep trails. Taller people may wish to consider the 52" staff.
I have had two minor issues. The foam grip is not closed cell, so it retains water during those wet Northwest Washington hikes. Also, after 15 years the foam has gotten a bit stiff. The rubber foot can come off in mud or when dragging the pole. I have lost two this way. The pole functions well without the rubber foot, but tears up the trail more and is more likely to skid on rock. Replacement feet and grip are available from Cascade Designs.
Tracks Foot (Paw Print with Adapter)
Tracks Rubber Foot Replacement
I don't find either of these problems to be more than slightly annoying. The pole itself is still the best I have used. I prefer the simplicity, lightness and stability over any adjustable pole I have tried.

Brunton Three-section Monopod for Binoculars and Transits Review

Brunton Three-section Monopod for Binoculars and Transits
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I bought the Brunton monopod for use as a walking stick for hiking, and a little added stability for my ultra zoom digital camera. It's very light at 9.5 ounces (approx a half a pound), but still works as a very sturdy walking stick. It collapses to a portable 25.5 inches, and extends to 62.5 inches. Most of the other double duty (monopod and walking stick) poles were about the same length collapsed, but a good 10 inches shorter than the Brunton fully extended which could be a problem for a tall photographer. It has a nice foam rubber handle, and a rubber tip to provide ample traction. No carbide tip, but that wasn't a huge concern for me. With the lower portion partially or fully collapsed and the upper portion fully extended there's little to no flex when applying significant weight (leaning 200+ lbs onto the pole). With the lower leg fully extended the pole flexes some when applying significant weight, but not enough to be a problem in my experience. The weight of a camera would never make this flex, so no worries in that department. Overall I'm very satisfied, and the price on Amazon can't be beat.

It has an adjustable Wedge Lock wrist loop, a removable walnut knob with a universal camera mount, and a spike tip beneath a removable rubber foot. Tracks walking staffs and trekking poles help you walk smarter. They reduce the impact of each step you take so that weight which is normally carried by your lower body is transferred to your arms and torso, lessening the stress on your legs by 5�10 pounds or more. This means you get more power and traction going uphill, and save your knees and ankles when coming back down. All Tracks staffs are hand-built with high-strength, lightweight anodized aluminum tubing. They are available as single walking staffs and paired trekking poles. Their soft foam handgrip stays comfortable hour after hour, while their adjustable wrist straps aid transfer of weight when walking.

Mine stayed strong for crossing streams or hiking on rocky trails, especially at Mount Osceola Trail in New Hampshire while it was very slippery with snow and icy water. I got my 2 poles as a set and was free with purchase of Mountainsmith Women's Laurel Backpack. I used only one pole at a time because I wanted one hand free and often switch pole from one hand to another. Though I relied on only one pole, I never fell "yet" even in the dark (in the rain at White Oak Canyon and Ceder Run at AT, Virginia). Of course, you will need good hiking boots to balance your feet. I have mine about a year now so can't tell for long lasting quality.
