Collapsible Poles

Postby IIIXIII » Wed Jun 11, 2014 7:50 am

2 part question here for you folks, with hope someone has maybe dabbled with this in the past.

1) Does anyone have experience with collapsible pole-arms? How is the durability? I imagine spears would be more durable than glaives. I am interested in both.

2) Where could one find a collapsible core?

For reference:

Thanks!

Two it was a constant hassle to get it to pass while taking it apart since one of the joints goes directly through where you have put courtesy padding on it. Also it just wasn't that convenient to put take to events. I would not buy again.

The post is one of the last on that page. That was posted last September. It's been less than a year, but their tech could have changed.
