BasicStock (made by Leki)

The trek-pod is heavier than a trail pole (32 vs 8 oz) and looks shaky.
I wish there were a dinkus with a ball head on top and holes at angles
around the bottom to screw onto two or three hiking poles to form a bipod or
tripod.
Maybe drill & tap a small ball head? Or weld/braze some wide knurled "tripod
nuts" to it?
