Handle came off

Ranked #329 - Trekking Poles
March 28, 2010
Plastic type cotter pin holds the handle to the shaft, busted down the Na Pali coast and the handle and spring fell apart. Definitely a design flaw, had to wrap the strap around the shaft to hold the handle on for the return trip. Would not buy these again. Only had 75 miles or so on them.
