Handle the use of rubber material, making the time it would be more slippery, but it feel good.
Plastic and wood handles are usually made of relatively slippery feel is not particularly good, but durable, good intensity.

Aluminum alloy, strong, light, cheap. Most of the manufacturers are using this material.
2． Carbon alloy, the aluminum alloy as a solid, but the weight to be lighter, but more expensive price.
3． Titanium alloys, titanium alloys than aluminum alloy, carbon alloy lighter and more robust, but more expensive. Many manufacturers now have a mix of titanium and aluminum alloy, so that compared to pure titanium prices cheaper, but far more than the strength of aluminum alloy, and their scalability is also improved. Carbon alloy and titanium alloy manufacturers are relatively small in diameter, to make people feel very light, when in use you can put them off very quickly, it is easy to put a sharp stick into a suitable position.
Cane rod can be scalable: the alpenstocks 3 can be compared to two shorter contraction.
