+Team Lyons Posted July 22, 2003 Share Posted July 22, 2003 Just did "geocaching" search on ebay and one of the items that came up was this. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3618131049&category=23809 It's seems to have everything but the kitchen sink. Just thought it was a neat item. Quote Link to comment

It would make a nice cache for the lucky S.O.B. that would find it. Quote Link to comment

+WildcatRegi Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 As a firm believer in having a hiking staff with you on the trail, this looks like a good concept but I wonder how it really 'feels'. Balance is all important to a good hiking staff, it must pivot easily and the grips must be flexible to adjust to the terrain. That's why for 30 years I've been using my own hikory staff that I've tuned to my own hiking style. I wish them luck though and I wouldn't mind at all if I came across someone using one on a trail so that I can check it out! "The hardest thing to find is something that's not there!"

+Buzz_Lightfoot Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 My first thought was, 'They're kidding, right?' My second one was 'Jack of all trades, master of none!' My experience of these types of multi-combo gee-whiz-bang tools is that they are all trash... If they are able to do the job at all, they do it poorly. Although I have to say, this one carries the genre to an art form! I bought an invisible fence for my invisible dog. Buzz Lightfoot Pike County, PA Quote Link to comment
+El Diablo Posted July 23, 2003 Share Posted July 23, 2003 My first thought was...if I took all that stuff out of it, I'd never get it all back in. I would end up putting the stuff in my backpack which already has those items in the first place! However...loving gadgets the way I do it is a cool concept I'm just not sure how practical it is.
