Pros: Finish
Cons: Durability, Materials, Overall Quality
very disappointed but thats the story of the Irish in general
made in Germany is the plus point here, this product is quite disappointing as a regular carry stick and might find its best use as a walking stick for a geriatric olde crone prone to chasing stray cats away from her equally aged lapdog and threatening the neighbors with legal action for not cleaning up the yard, useless as a practical tool, definitely would not intimidate a medium sized 'yote or a two legged deranged individual both of which types I routinely encounter on my hiking trails, I reckon I'll stick with the Cold Steel walking staffs which are top notch for use, sometimes "authentic" just means out dated and out classed by Progress
