The cane is very sturdy and functional
I bought two of these for my husband.  They have a metal push button to adjust height depending on what hole you set it in on the main cane cylinder.  The height adjustment system also has a &quot;tripod-like&quot; twist-turn tighten lock at the extension point.  The cane is very height adjustable.  The cane is very sturdy and functional.  The handle grip is a soft sponge type foam.  The cane does what it is supposed to do and that is why it gets 5 stars.  It looks fine in black but more functional and tech looking than designer looking but we knew that when we bought it.  Very pleased with it.  UPDATE;  after using the cane my husband cut off the foam cushion on the handle.  He likes it much better without the cushion because he can grip the handle better and higher up on the handle.  The handle is slanted downwards which makes it easier to get it out in front of him when he walks.  He was going to put a golf club wrap grip on the handle but likes it better with no grip at all because it feels more like a traditional wood cane grip now.
