Carex Health Brands Round Handle Wood Cane, Black

I liked it so much that I bought two of them and have found that it’s much easier to walk with two canes instead of just the one. I’m more secure with my balance and support. Especially appreciate the price of $5 each. These are very good looking canes, too. Definitely recommend!Update: Price has more than doubled recently, so they’re not such a great value.

Great cane some what lite and sturdy, had some confusion on how it was being delivered but all worked out. Would recommend if your looking for a cane.

We purchased this for our kid's event at school to celebrate 100 days of school. They had to dress up as an elderly person, so they had asked for walking sticks. Originally they were going to take my hiking/skiing poles, but due to them being considered weapons we opted for this cane.We were expecting something flimsy and cheap, honestly the cane reminded me of the beatings that I used to get when in boarding school back in days, the cane that keeps on giving.It is extremely sturdy and solid. Has a good amount of weight on it to support even me while I was trying it out, just an fyi I am a 6'2' and 220 pounds.

About three years ago my VA Primary Health Provider (doctor) told me I needed to start using a cane. I thought she was silly. I could walk with no help. Turns out that walking wasn't the problem. It is my balance. I found out the hard way. After the second bad fall I looked into getting a cane.As I am cheap I turned to the VA for a cane. They said they would issue me a cane but I first had to go to the regional VA hospital (two hour drive) to attend classes on the use of a cane. I figured this was stupid. There are two things to know: which end to hold (duh) and then point it at the ground (again - duh). I declared the VA to be staffed by idiots (not the last time) and turned to Amazon.com. I found this cane rather quickly. I was apprehensive about the length but figured if it was too short I would have to get used to it and if it was too long I could always call on my friend the saw. He has happily helped me in the past.I really don't know how some reviewers have determined that it is knot free. You can sand anything and cover it with a thick coat of paint and it would be impossible to tell what is under the paint. However, I pulled off the rubber crutch tip (gasp) and found that it is some type of composite material. That is fine with me as composits are usually stronger. If I had wanted some pretty oak or walnut I would have spent more money.As for the length, it is perfect. It is almost as if someone measured me for a cane. (Maybe my memory is getting bad with age but I don't remember this happening.) I am six feet one inches tall if that helps anyone in determining if it is the right length for them. It is, also, the perfect length for closing my car door or reaching that top shelf at the grocery store if that helps.It has become my constant companion. I have forgotten it twice and felt as if an appendage was missing until I realized that I had left it behind. I have come to depend on it and it has saved me several times from falling (oh yeah, that's why I have it - duh for the third time), Yeah, yeah, it makes me look old and feeble but I have finally reached the age where I just don't care. One reviewer noted that it would make a good self defense weapon but I hope to never use it as such. That's why I carry a Glock.-- Update --I have had this cane for almost a year and the rubber tip had a large piece cut off somehow. Amazon.com has a wide assortment of tips but I don't know what size to order. Can anyone help with this info? Otherwise going strong.

Very lightweight. I’d prefer a heavier cane , but this is suitable and sturdy for it size.
