![AWESOME HIKING STAFF! [Crawford Survival Staff]](/img/tr.png)
I just got two of these. ......one for me and one for my wife. It's nice that the height can be customized. I got the hammer head top ends and rubber pads. It'll be great for hiking or even just walks around our country neighborhood. The weight of it can actually be a bonus if you need to swing the hammer head at an aggressive dog, or human. It'll reside behind the seat of my truck until I want to use it........or need to use it.
For an EDC , i might oull out the blades and just fill it with survival items. Could hold alot of useful gear, and since i need a cane this could be a good way to lighten my pockets.
I would suggest you put a little silicone lube on the threads of the ends vs an oil-base lube. The rubber/neoprene o-rings will breakdown sooner with any petroleum based lube; silicone lube won't. The other concern I have about this remarkable stick is whether or not the compass can be trusted being around a ferrous metal. This was something we were taught in the military to accurately identify true magnetic North. I hope to own one of these soon.
Be cautious when it comes to the warranty. The compass came out of mine and was lost. Spent three days on phone and text messaging and FINALLY the company agreed to send me a replacement. That was early March of this year. Was told it would take three weeks. Nothing yet
Did it show up yet?
I'm disabled and have to walk at night and catch the bus.just ordered mine. So excited 😁
How do you like it?
the walking stick looks great, I've been looking at picking up one. Thanks!
Years ago, I purchased the “T” handle model, which didn’t have the compass. What I found great about it is that you don’t need to have it completely assembled; that is if you want to reduce the weight, which I don’t feel is a negative. I just purchased another model TacStick for my wife, this one has the compass. I’m sure she will love it. What hasn’t been mentioned is that the TacStick can be used as a defensive tool when the need arise, because of its solid structure.
That is exactly why I bought mine! stick someone with the spearhead or frog gig and they will NOT come back for more! LOL
Looks cool- right off the bat, I was in the military and it's POSSIBLE this thing was around but- I HIGHLY doubt it. Most soldiers just carried a big knife, an E-tool and MAYBE a leathermen. Of those, only the E-tool was standard issue that I'm aware of. Otherwise we just used guns- so immediately some of the claims of the company are total BS. An object being "military grade" means nothing. Military equipment is made by the lowest bidder and is sometimes lower quality than civilian equivalents.
Watching this and- just get big rebar pin and a leathermen. I see no reason to believe this thing will function any better than that.
Don't like the bottle openers at the bottom of the blade. Takes away the strength...if you can't open a beer without one, then you shouldn't be drinking
don't be a weenie, buy yer beer with either a pull tab or a screw cap...they are all that way now!
BIC should make a bottle opener commercial...
every connection is an opportunity for failure. There is a similar tool that screws together. It's versatile as well; multiple attachments and such. Use as an axe, shovel, spear...can't. Vibrations causes pain. Connections break. Knife is too small to be of value...I'd like to see that used where some actual weight and force are applied. IDK, say a sharp rap against a tire to simulate driving off an animal or human. It's designed for violence or the end wouldn't have a cone point.
Save your money
the so called glass breaker point is very handy for walking on trails and through the woods, which I do very little, but I just ordered the rubber tips for the end so I can walk on the street or on wood floors with it, like at my church, without damaging anything. If I can hit someone with it hard enough to break the threading off, then they likely will be down for the count. And besides, if I do break a couple of the screw joints, I will just buy a couple more sections. Easy Peasy!
Great review
Did not answer the most important question. How sturdy is it with all the threaded connections. Seem like any side force to it would cause it to bend, weaken or damage the threads of the various sections leaving it wobbly?
Good question - it is strong and sturdy but to what degree is difficult to say. I actually have plans to test that.
I await their reply below, but I will say for poking or jabbing, which is compressional force, it should be very high, for tensional force like whopping some animal or person, if you are really strong, you might damage a threaded section. But if that happens, its cheap enough to buy another couple of replacement sections, so.......
So it doesn’t come with a different tip instead of the rock crusher? You definitely can use that on cement trails.
There are rubber accessory tips available: theprimeadventure.com/collections/extra-accessories
Do you have a video demo on using the tools and how well the hold up?
I do not but that is a great idea. I do have plans for more videos however finding the time this has been difficult this year with family illnesses. Thanks.
Are there other options for the bottom of the stick so that you don’t damage the glass breaker?
Some bundles come with a rubber bottom you can slip on. I would assume you could slip one over the breaker and be fine

Tactical Stick Rubber Tip End
Looks like the 80s kids Rambo knife lol
Looks like it was designed to be applicable to hiking but not for street use. So many tubes just prone to failure and if you did need anything really quickly you have unscrew which friggin tube did I park it in, remove it and screw it back on. The spear is so short it might only be effecive against a rodent or maybe a dog...so does have some utility. Save your money, and possibly your life
If I was having to walk in a seedy portion of town, I would put the spear point on the top to replace the compass section. Got to be prepared....or just carry my pistol with me in my pocket!
Ive found on amazon...but it doesn't say you get the spear... knife ... or harpoon... any idea why please are they extras...???
Those are included in the purchase.
Well I just got mine 4 tube, no carry carry case
did all of the tools come with it? if not which ones did it come with?
@juggalojames614 it comes with the tools shown . Glass breaker ,Flat hammer these are the 2 ends. Go to the order page all those are included 3 different blades. There is a Firestarter that screws into the hammer head. I use the double edge with 1 section so I have the breaker, hammer and the blade screwed in.
Can you have any of the attachments on the end? Like a spear on full length or a pole saw
Sorry for the late reply - yes, you can configure it like you described.
comes with spear, two different knives, two prong sticker, and other stuff.
I was a teenager when First Blood came out. I just had to get a survival knife. It was so cool. It was all I'd need in the woods. ( I grew up in a very rural area and practically lived in the woods). Anyhow, I found it sucked as a knife, sucked as a saw, sucked as a machete or hatchet and the wire saw sucked. It did hold a few matches. Anyhow, I think this would be much the same but in fairness I have not seen it in person. I think it would be better to have a good knife or two on your belt and the rest of your survival gear made for the purpose in your backpack and/pockets.
Well, that's an age-old argument from long before First Blood - a combination tool vs single purpose tools. Obviously a pair of channel locks will out perform some pliers on a multi-tool, but it all depends on an individual's need.
You didn't get the military grade Rambo knife. You got a Chinese knock off
I ordered expecting to get a walking stick. I received a packet with three 6" sections. Totals about 18" in length. You'd need to be mighty short to use it as a walking stick. I'm very disappointed. Maybe can be used as a billy club.
Please see the contact info at the bottom of this page to reach for a resolution: theprimeadventure.com/pages/untitled-sep-25-11-47-12
I really like this. I've been looking at the Crawford survival staff as well. Where is this made? I read that you ship from the US, but is it made in the USA or China? Keep up the great work.
I am not sure where exactly they are made however, you can inquire directly with Prime - their phone and email address are at the bottom of this page: theprimeadventure.com/account/login
@@ThePrimeAdventureTacticalStick Let me get this straight...your video page, the website page and the device are all the same, yet you do not know where this stick is made? WOW!!! I was thinking of buying this but when the company that sells it as their own product doesn't even know where it is made, that is NOT a good sign.
@@website8496 I do not work for or own the business - I am only an affiliate.
That's a yes. Made in China.
I realized one thing I forgot to mention is the outside diameter of the tubes which comes to 1.145"
What was the overall length. Thx
@@artraego4511 All 8 tubes - 56 1/4 in.
Can i use a drop of wd40 to the threads ? You mentioned a drop of household oil. I just got my stick today.
Yes
My question, do all the tools rattle when hiking? Thanks
I do find that if the tools are not all tightly secure, you will hear some rattling. And it can happen that after a long hike, so you may need to retighten things.
I mounted all my tools tightly, and no they do not rattle.
Add lighter amd flashlight to it, no competition then
You can add your own
So, is it an Almighty Eagle? Or a Prime Adventure?
Prime Adventure
what about the end of the walking stick? it have some rubber or something to protect it and help with slip or you need to use the glass breaker as the point touching the floor?
Sorry for the late reply - the Prime Adventure Tactical Stick website now sells them. You can also find the one I used in my modified video here: treelineusa.com/large-chrome-combo-cane-and-walking-stick-tip/
It comes with a rubber end you can put on the bottom
So is this the standard setup or is this like a deluxe kit because that's about as tall as I need one I'm 6'2 and want it about 5 ft tall
Standard set
A shame it doesn't come with an attachable spearhead for defense.
It does.
Stainless steel and aluminium ?
The tubes are aluminum.
Aircraft grade aluminum.
What material is the hammer/glass breaker tip made of?
It is made of steel but not sure of its exact composition.
The hammer head is only 3/16ths inch, do not expect to hammer nails with it! But should work ok for tent pegs.
Is it a lyrical fire starter? 🤓
Not sure what that type of fire starter that is but the one on the stick is flint and steel.
Is there a regular rubber bottom for indoor use.
😂
Yes, the website sell rubber attachments: theprimeadventure.com/
What is the material construction? Aluminum? Steel?
The tubes are aluminum.
aircraft grade aluminum
Can this be used as a lever? And how much weight can be moved before failing? Such as a 600lb motorcycle on its side!
Great question but I really don't know though. I am not sure it could manage that much weight.
@@ThePrimeAdventureTacticalStick I would say that it would only have to withstand 1/2 that weight when applying force at other points as well.
Got this partial stick - countless pieces missing - totally useless - definitely a scam
Too bad, look above and another customer had a problem, use that link to go to their Resolution Center, they should either refund your money or send you what you did not get, if you ordered the standard set.
Looks heavy
a little over 3 pounds...3 pounds, 3 ounces with the tools. At 74, i like its weight to carry and use....feels substantial.
not to use full
