Best bang for the buck

After using these poles on a good twenty outings, I can tell you that they are light, stiff, have a nice feel to their swing and handles, and with the grip areas near their tips, are totally easy to change lengths when your gloves are all wet or icy. Also, they are not expensive. Forget about those silly carbon tips. These are tough, reliable, and not prone to breakage. Additionally, the paint finish does not easily scratch.
