Might want to try am an Ambutech folding cane.  The only problem is they do weigh a little bit more.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles between blind people and our dreams. You can live the life you want; blindness is not what holds you back.

One only lasted for two weeks and one before that lasted about 3 months. (Normally my canes have been lasting me at least 6 months to the longest I have used it was 2 years)
