[Blindtlk] looking to purchase a pencil cane tip

[T. Joseph Carter]

There are several different kinds of folding cane out there with a 
large assortment of cane tips for each.  WCIB, Advantage, and 
Ambutech are just three I know about off the top of my head.  You 
need to figure out what you’ve got before we can help.

Ambutech graphite canes are distinguished by three features, a rubber 
golf grip with a diagonal faux leather wrap, plastic rings on the 
socket end of each joint, and the actual joints are aluminum.  
Ambutech has two kinds of tips, a slip-on tip and a hook tip.  You 
can know which you need based on what you’ve currently got.  But if 
you haven’t got an Ambutech cane, that’s not going to help you.

Independent Living Aids probably will have whatever you need no 
matter who makes your cane, but you’ve got to know what to order.
