 Rugged and high-quality May 25, 2006

I used this hiking pole to go to the bottom of the Grand Canyon (and back) last month, and it performed perfectly. Light-weight, durable, and folds up small enough to fit into suitcase or backpack. The compass and thermometer are very small and stay out of the way of the handle, but come in very handy. I highly recommend this item...

Very serviceable Chinese copy of a Leki pole for less than half the price. Light and sturdy and smooth. Works well as a monopod. Kaito gave me very good service; they shipped the day after my order and packed the item well (long skinny items are expensive to ship correctly). I'm buying another one.

I was looking for a hiking pole, but didn't want to spend $50 for one and then find out I didn't like it. Saw the Kaito, saw some good reviews, and figured it was worth a try. Glad I did! Has served me well so far (25 miles of hiking since I got it) in rocky New England terrain and would buy it again.

I took up hiking for health reasons. I'm a weekend hiker and found after hiking with and without a pole I would never hike without one. Even on short treks. Great for balance i.e., creeks, streams, switch backs. Gives a better full range workout to your upper body. I find myself getting into a rhythm, helping me keep my heart pumping for my cardio workout. I love the boost this pole gives me going up mild to steep grades. I find this pole strong enough for my 200 lb. frame with no problems. The only small negative is the rubber tip wore out quickly. I replaced it with a better one from the local sporting goods store and off to the trails again. For the price I paid and the use I've been getting from this pole it has paid itself off ten fold. I can buy 5 of these for what my friend paid for his one REI pole.

For such a light hiking pole, it is incredibly rugged and built very well. I like the spring-loaded shock absorber and the detachable top post, so that it can also be used as a camera monopod. At this price, I bought two and it's still 50% less than a pair of name-brand poles. This is a must-have piece of equipment for outdoor photographers.
