    Let’s not be hyperbolic. I’ll agree MOST companies behave this way. There are plenty of companies that also value their staff, pay them well and take good care of their customers.

    I bought a handcrafted cane from a craftsman in Ukraine and when a small crack formed in the handle after a few months of use. I wrote him to ask how to repair the crack and he straight up remade the entire handle and sent it to me for free. He also sent me a free leather strap for the cane.

    The company is called Asterom and they are absolutely worth your money if you need/want a cane. You also support an awesome Ukrainian company.

        YSK their canes are pretty awesome. I went with the Thor cane personally but they have a ton of really cool designs. A little tacky with the winged helmet but I love the braided beard and the grizzled look of thor on this thing.

        Correct my evidence is anecdotal. However your comment is completely void of any. I will agree apples and oranges are very different though.
