Hello,
I use the 50 50 NFB cane and the only part that breaks is the connecting 
elastic. I walk mega fast and do a lot of cross country running and whatnot 
and it has never broken.
Thank you,

Brandon Keith Biggs

Hello all,

I'm sure we discussed this topic before, but I am now in need of a new cane.

I need a folding or collapsible cane, but the collapsible Nfb Kane has 
proven too Brittle for me.

I use a straight, somewhat heavier, but very heavy duty came now. It is an 
Iowa cane.

I am leaning towards purchasing an Ambutech graphite cane. This will be 
quite a heavy cane for me since it will be at 64 inch tall one.

I already have the repair kit for this type of King, so I can always fix it 
when it breaks.

I am not looking forward to how heavy this cane Will be.

I would be interested in finding something a little lighter, but still tall.

What is your preference in canes, and why.

I would be especially interested in international models.

Thanks,
Antonio
