Thank goodness they put a video on the website . .

. . . but it's still not too clear where that spring-loaded button is located. A little narration would help. It's at the top of the second tube from the bottom, inside the third tube, and you have to pull the metal cable taut and keep pulling until the button pops out and secures the second tube to the third tube. Then you can insert the third tube into the fourth (the one with the nicely-shaped grip) and set the length to suit yourself. To take down for transport, pull slightly on the second tube while pushing the button until it disappears into the third tube, which takes the tension off of the cable and allows you to double the cane and secure it with the porvided velcro fastener. Whew!

Called 'em up

I had the same issue with learning how to assemble the walking support. Ended up calling MtSmith directly for instructions and they kindly answered my questions (this was before the video). Now the video serves as a helpful reminder of the solution. Compact, sturdy support for travel -- highly recommend for the cane handle.

Having instructions on how to assemble should be essential. I am very disappointed

Damn Fine Piece of Engineering

I bought this in 2019 after the Department of Veteran Affairs issued me a worthless piece of junk cane designed for a nursing home (and undoubtedly charged the American Taxpayer far more than I ponied up for the Globetrotter).

I found mine at the Lake Superior Trading Post in Grand Marais and it helped me get back to hiking again.

It took me awhile to get the hang of assembly and disassembly before air travel, but since then it’s been my constant and most reliable travel companion to Venice, London, Canada, a Transatlantic sea voyage, sailing to Catalina and even a few red carpets. It fits perfectly in a carry on which comes in handy when you get abandoned in the airport wheelchair at JFK. 😉✈️😂

My only wish is that they’d come out with a more durable boot cover in an eco friendly material to protect marble, wood and historic floors. I’ve probably powered thru 10 of the boot covers in the last 6 years, but it’s nice they are replaceable.

This is hands down the, sleekest, most versatile, lightest and hardiest cane design I’ve ever found. I love the natural cork handle too. After decades of loving Mountainsmith Gear this has been my best purchase yet.
