    I think this cane is an excellent solution to many problems - wrist arthritis being one! I hope the maker is successful beyond his wildest dreams and can get into the CNIB. I did my research quickly while I paused your video and checked out links and this product is not available to be shipped to Canada. I am only 5"2" on my tallest days so I hope the free cane goes to someone who can put it through it's paces and then some. I love your videos and have taken the advice given with me when updating my technology recently. Thank you ever so much for your honesty and helping us wind our way through our visually impaired lives. Glenda

    Sam, I appreciate this great gentleman and his work. But, if one is trained to hold the cane just slightly to the side of the body, one would never be jabbed by holding it directly in front of your belly.
    Holding the cane just slightly to the side of one's body (as you demonstrated in this very video), it would not interfere with any of the normal uses of the cane except holding it upright as one goes up and down stairs or traveling through tight spaces such as heavy crowds, which of course one would have to do even with the "No-Jab" cane.
    My personal feeling as a long-term obligate cane user, whenever outside my home, is that this is a non-sequitur.
    But, Sam. let me congratulate you on your continuing efforts to keep the Blind Community informed of new products, in addition to the great general service you provide both the Blind and Seeing World in the way of questions and answers. I especially enjoy your vids. with your daughter. They more than anything demonstrate how supportive family members can be to members of our Community and how important family acceptance is to our moral. You must be a great Dad. -Jack Crofoot, "Retinitis Pigmentosa Update."

    @superfreq7378 5 років тому +1

    This is pretty cool, and it seems like a nice, light, high quality cane even without the compression handle and especially with the great feature of Ambutech tip compatibility, but to be honest, unless you have a wrist condition or the walking paths where you live are super crap, you really shouldn't be having such a common problem with getting jabbed.
    If your getting hit that much, then IMHO you need to learn a better cane technique or get a lighter/more flexible cane (such as the ones the NFB sells) that will bounce over things more than ramming them.
    Basically, for most people, I think this cane is just a band-aid solution to a bigger problem, but that said, I also know how fragmented training techniques can be, and good O&M teachers can be hard to find.
    And Personally I haven't jabbed my self in so long that I can't even remember the last time it happened, and I walk around a fair amount, at good speed, in a city with quite a few obstacles, but when I was a kid it happened more often.
    Still, I don't do much true offroading, most of the sidewalks near me aren't terrible, I have no wrist problems, and I'm not a senior. When I had a heavier, less flexible ambutech cane it was a bit more common, but even when I did go hiking, I always made sure to keep my cane out in front and not lean into the thing.
    I also have some concerns about the weatherproofing and overall longevity of a leather handle. It seems very comfortable, but it could ruin the entire cane if it starts to crack or rot. I would suggest that anyone who decides to buy this cane should research some basic leather care techniques and practice them regularly, especially in particularly hot/cold weather.
    If I were the one in charge of distribution for this, I'd make sure to include some tips for leather care with the product in braille and large print along with the rest of the instructions, which ideally should also be in braille/large print.
    I wonder about holster compatibility for those who like to have a backup cane or only need it at night? Maybe a holster that fits well with the cane will be offered in future.
    The R&D required to make this both tactile enough, and stable enough for every day use even with a leather wrap and floating handle design must have been pretty impressive though!
    And I'm very impressed with the competitive pricing, given the step up in quality and the size difference between this new startup and the more established players in the market!

    Sam, as always, you bring new technologies to us. I appreciate that you put out such quality videos. Too bad I use a 55 inch cane because I’m under 5 foot two and find the longer canes are much better for travel. However, the stomach jab is a bit much to take and because of this, I have altered the way I use my cane. This will be a great addition to my growing stash of canes. Of course, I can’t get rid of my first love, which is the very first cane I received after mobility training. Thanks again and keep the videos coming.

    Well if I win this Kane I will make sure at my buddy Martin was well over 6 ft tall gets it in his hands. He just broke his Cane the other day.
    Also, I wanted to add that perhaps instead of a spring in the handle for probably the same amount of money or less they could have added an air shock system. It might have been a little bit tighter but would have done the job super quietly.
    Great video Sam and thank you for showing us this awesome Kane and thank you to the gentleman who created it. People like him it's making our lives much easier

      Hi Vincent:
      Thank you for your comments on my cane, I appreciate your feedback. I fully understand your concern about the noise in the handle; however, when you are using the cane it is hardly noticeable due to the noise of tapping and skimming the ground. I use my cane everyday and I never even notice it. When I first started development of the shock absorbing system my first choice was to use the hydraulic or air shock system. However, after several months of trying all the different applications of this system I discovered that it was not practical. The initial pounds of pressure to start the collapse of the system was too harsh. I have found that the spring is the most effective way for it to work smoothly and operate at a comfortable level.
      I will keep trying and testing and strive to make the best cane that I can. Again, thank you for your feedback.
      Sincerely,
      John McAteer
