I would go with the Black Diamond flick lock poles. I have had mine for over 3 years now and they have done me a treat. OK, I have had, and do have issues with more than one injury that has affected my walking and these poles have been brilliant. They were expensive but they are light and the flick lock is really easy to use even with thick gloves on. They have been thrown, been caught in rocks and taken some beating in their time and still they have done their job,,,,,, oh but,, One thing,, I did feel like I was walking a bit off kilter and a bit wonky not too long ago and found that one of the poles was sliding down ever so slowly as I was walking! A tighten when I got home with a screwdriver and it was fine!
