old school, new tech hiking stick
February 22, 2008 – 5:08 pm by ryancI don’t really see many on the trails these days using just a walking stick. Most have moved up to trekking poles or use nothing at all. For those of you that prefer a walking/hiking stick, Luxury Lite has you covered. But not so quick — this ‘Stik’ is masquerading. Not only is it a walking stick, but the top pulls out to be a knife and the knife can be attached to the bottom to form a spear.
Multi-use gear is one of the tenets of lightweight and ultralight backpacking, and the Luxury Lite Big Survival Stik epitomizes that philosophy. So, travel with a little bit more piece of mind, knowing that your stick is more than just a stick and could really help you out in a survival or self-defense situation.

I use neither walking stick nor trekking pole, but if I were going to, something along these lines is what I would choose. I have already considered making a hiking stick with a concealed knife. Maybe I’ll buy one instead!

i have never seen the need for a stick or a pole while hiking, but for some reason i really want this.
