Summary: This is a lightweight cane with great tactile feedback.
Full Review: I have used canes from AmbuTech, WCIB, and Advantage. Without a doubt, AmbuTech graphite canes are my favorite.
I have the most experience with AmbuTech canes, albeit aluminum ones. That said, I have found (through experience) that AmbuTech canes are more durable than those from WCIB or Advantage. In terms of graphite canes, the AmbuTech graphites feel sturdier--they seem to have a tighter fit when unfolded--than their counterparts from Advantage.
As far as differences between the AmbuTech and the Advantage graphites, the following come to mind:
1. The AmbuTech graphites seem to fit together better than those from Advantage.
2. The AmbuTech canes have hook-on tips, which are lighter than the slip-on variety and, I think, fit more securely on the cane and provide better tactile feedback.
