Cheap CF trekking poles

This is the first I've seen of them. If they indeed are 6.8 oz each, they would be lighter than the Cascade Mountain Tech CF poles. I say buy a pair. That way, you can tell us if they are good or not….

I broke two carbon fiber poles a few months ago. They don't appear to be particularly hazardous. Not all fiber poles are constructed equally so the failure mode may vary. Interesting question. I wonder if some poles splinter when pushed to the failure point?

cool that doesn't look so hazardous. As a kid I was washing a boat and ran my hand down a pole that I think was Cf but might have been fiberglass now that I think about it, it gave me tons of splinters. Anyway I found the deal here of all places on my monthly scope for deals, http://bushcraftusa.com/forum/showthread.php/159903-Carbon-Fiber-Flip-Lock-Trekking-Poles-33-Shipped

^^^Poorly finished carbon fiber can leave some nasty splinters but I don't think they've used it in boats for too long.
