[Blindtlk] cane advice

[Alyssa]

Hi Tom and all,
I've had the same issues. I personally prefer either the NFB 7 section folding cane or the Ambutech slim line 7 section folding cane with a metal glide tip. Each of these canes cost about $40 but they are good buys, especially the Ambutech one. Let me know if you have any further questions.
