aiGear Advanced Walking Hiking Stick CNC Machined Outdoor Climbing Trekking Poles with Whistle Compass Lanyard Color Black(WS106X)

The walking stick is great and can certainly be used to keep animals at bay if needed. As some have mentioned it is noticeably heavier than the thin walled sticks, but that is needed to serve its purpose; however, it is not too heavy for me. The tools seem a bit flimsy embedded in aluminum, but to be fair I didn't test their durability. I don’t even keep the tools in the stick. Even without the tools this would probably need to go in your checked bag on an airplane.

I really liked this walking stick. It was a bit heavier that I expected, but it was also very sturdy. I used it on some trails and scaling some rocks. Unfortunately, I accidentally left it in the rental car when I turned it in... so someone has a really nice walking stick.

This hiking stick/staff from aiGear, has exceeded my expectations in its precision manufacturing and quality.My bar is set rather high when it comes to my hiking gear and this modern Alpenstock definitely meets that bar and surpasses it. I use is for high desert hiking with rocky terrain. Extremely strong and evenly balanced.Warning - Some may find it on the heavy side but I myself do not. For me, this is the best Alpenstock of its kind I have ever owned. 100% satisfied with this purchase.

I really like it but there is only one pole. I ordered the other one.

I purchased 2 and the compass on one of them fell off right after i took it out of the bag. Its not that big of a deal, a little glue should fix it, but because of that i felt three stars was appropriate

The weight of it is good & sturdy. Can easily interchange length and which “tools” you want where. I added reflective bands for night walking. Worth every dime !

idk if it met my expections but i feel bad for the bad guys trying to give my dad a push-over. my dad is now a killing machine with this "walking stick".

Very functional and versatile. Good weight as well.
