Lee Valley part # 45K42.18 has been quite robust for me; over four
years of rough trails and concrete sidewalks and the rubber tip is
still ok.

Is this the rubber tip?

It is a bit big for the walking stick I made for the wife; but maybe I
can fit a steel tip on the end, which then would fit the rubber
insert.

Call me dense, but I don't get this. People use canes, crutches and all
sorts of things, everyday - that have rubber tips on them and they don't
wear out even after years of use. What's different about this particular
walking stick?
