My wife is fishing around for gift ideas, and she found (I assume from a FB ad) a link to a shady website selling modular hiking poles. I looked at them on Amazon (so they'd at least be easily returnable if they were a scam). Most of them are made up of a series of of rods (9" for the ones I can find documented) that you screw together, with the option to put on various handles (knob, T, compass) at the top, and tools (knife, glassbreaker, AXE!) on the tip. They are (as she pointed out) very cool, and we do like hiking, but they remind me of those 50-in-1 camping multitools that require you to chop your fingers off with the axe to use the hammer, and are liable to break on the first tent peg. Has anyone used one?
