This may need to be actually posted in the equipment forum, but I know this area gets more foot/"eye" traffic.
I found this on AT while doing a search. Those will closer connections with Muddy can probably lend more details. I for one, when I get home will check my sticks. I just picked up a new set not over 3 weeks ago.
CLIMBING STICK MODEL 70401 (SINGLE 20 INCH CLIMBING STICK) AND
2012 CLIMBING STICK MODEL 70404 (4 PACK 20 INCH CLIMBING STICKS).
