"No rattle whatsoever, sturdy and holds my weight well, nice blade and it is very secure. Extremely satisfied, thank you Budk."
"First off I am a big fan of Bud K and Gil Hibben. The cane appears to be well made and sturdy. I myself weigh over 200lbs. And it supports my weight well. But I can't get over how dull the blade is. The product they show in the video is definitely not the product you get. I believe most people buy this product for the use of the blade. Bud K definitely dropped the ball on this one . They needs to inspect their stock because false advertising can get them booted from BBB accreditation. Very Very disappointed with the blade."
"Must have got a good one. I use a cane and "thought mine was 36". Turns out it is 34". I cut 2" off the GH Sword Cane bottom, tapered it a bit, and pushed a Rubber Cane tip on it. NOW it's a cane to lean on. I think the factory tip, although pretty is WAY to skinny. Needs WIDE rubber Cane tip!"
"Blade loose on handle, not sharp. Really not sharp!!!!! Handle loose in shaft. I added a little Gorilla glue to the handle, Sharpened it for about an hour (steel is quite hard) and put some foam in the shaft to cure the looseness. It looks quite nice. It is pretty heavy though. Price is pretty good though."
"While beautiful and great to look at, mostly a good "conversation piece" and not really recommended for something to use. Latch is unreliable, unhooks easily, which makes for an unsafe situation. I had two with the same problem, really quite disappointed."
"For this cane to be a Gil Hibben, and the price that was paid for it,I feel that it is not the top quality product it should be. Right out of the box I noticed the blade was loose and not the "RAZOR SHARP" they claimed it would be. I own several Hibben knives and this is the first time I would not recommend this product to anyone. Very disappointing"
"This is a beautiful cane. I have some reservations w/this, with the first reservation only time will tell. Here are my thoughts. 1. I am afraid that my weight on this cane might loosen the place where the cane separates from the shaft. 2. This is advertised as "razor sharp". The point is. The rest is no where near razor sharp. 3. picture is deceiving. Read the information provided. The blade in "not" as long as the wooden shade. All in all, like I said, the cane is beautiful."
"being handicapped i do use this as a weight bearing cane and for that it is GREAT ! as previously mentioned blade is SHORT , and VERY DULL that is the reason for the LOW GRADE and NOT RECOMMENDED TO A FRIEND WHAT IS THE BEST AND EASIEST WAY TO SHARPEN ? ? ? ?"
"I HAVE SEVERAL CANES THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST COULD BE SHARPER"
"Thoroughly enjoying this beautifully designed and executed piece. Catch is precise and smooth. The short blade is first rate, state of the art. I can see why there's so much fuss about the Hibben moniker."
