aiGear Premium Walking Hiking Stick CNC Machined Outdoor Trekking Poles Color Black

STURDY ,STABLE,AND EASY TO HOLD ! THANK YOU !

Great concept & design, modular with add-ons, ultimate hiking/survival staff, strong & valuable.. down side is, a bit heavy, tip is hard and slippery on hard surfaces.

Just what I was looking for. I kept wearing out the cheap drugstore aluminum ones. This one is really rugged and can break down so I can travel with it. Only issue is it's fairly heavy, but that's not a bad thing. 😎

The overall rating for the product is tough for me. The stick itself is outstanding. If it wasn't over 5 stars, it would have an overall rating of 2 or 3. It is tough, and heavy duty. A hiker that would be using it for many miles many days in a row might want lighter, but for my uses it is a plus. I expect it to serve me well for a long time. That is the good.I bought the model with the tools. They were about what I expected for the extra I paid. Not something I would want to count on in any situation. They seemed ok, and they would probably get a 3 stars. The folding knife does not seem to be as strong, and the saw seems so small as to only seem like a reasonable option for the smallest of branches. The main problem is they don't come with anything that covers the cutting surface. If you take them out of the stick, there isn't something to cover any of the blades. At this price point, I think that would be a reasonable expectation. Do not feel deceived or cheated, but there is a lot of room for improvement in the tools.When you do remove the tools, it does one thing I did not expect and that is it shortens the stick. There is a threaded end on the end of each tool that has about an inch or so that screws into the rest of the stick. It decreases the length of the overall stick by about an inch for each tool removed. In my situation it was enough that I needed another extension tube. I liked the stick well enough to order one.That brought me to the next problem. The numbers that match assessory to the right stick are very confusing. It said the threads are different for the different sticks, but that would seem to be the first thing one would standardize. I looked and couldn't find anything that says what the threads are on my model. I never found numbers I matched. I searched on the number provided on the stick, but the numbers on the extension references numbers that do not appear on the stick page. I think I got the right one, but it shouldn't be that hard. The two descriptions should have easily found numbers that make it easy to see its the right one.I would appreciate the thread and tube size if the manufacturer would be kind enough to supply it. It is likely I am going to need a height that will not match the extensions act and will need a tube of a length other than the standard extension tubes. A big add to the product would be extension tubes that are 1, 2, and 3 inches. By being able to have those, one could customize the length to the individual buyers needs.Finally the downright dangerous. It's as many have said the tip. On anything other than soil, the tip that came with it is a trip to the hospital waiting to happen. On soil it might work, but anything else taking weight of any amount without it slipping is expecting a miracle. On any regular floor, it is more of a liability than an asset. I don't have carpet in the house anymore, and it might be better on that, but any hard surface is going to be really problematic and at this price point, that was a big surprise. The tip I would give a rating of below 0, even with the fire starter attached. I went and got a non slip table leg tip to put on it to correct the problem. With a non slip tip, it works well.That fixes the slip problem, but it also shortens the stick again. That takes another maybe 2 to 3 inches off the length.The other change I would make is some way to have a cap between sections. The inside of the stick has room to put things that are valuable to someone that would be important in a given area, but not necessarily everywhere. A cap that would attach like the tools, but separate the sections of the stick so items in one section could not fall into the one below it would be a big helpIt is a good product, but it could be a lot better and not add anything to the price.

Love this walking stick very tough Just what I needed All though it is quite heavy But with my mobility issues it will be strong enough to help me get back up if I fall
