Lock type and packed length matter more than the shaft material · review
NORDMUT telescopic aluminium poles, 65–135 cm, 325 g per pole review
Natural cork grips with a foam extension and the heaviest per-pole figure published in this hub, at a stated 325 g, on a pole that never names its lock.
The bottom line A well-gripped aluminium pole with an honest weight and a full accessory set. It is the heaviest figure published here and it will not say what locks it.
What this listing puts on record
A pair of telescopic aluminium poles adjusting steplessly from 65 to 135 cm, with ergonomically shaped natural cork grips and an EVA foam extension, a carry bag, three pairs of rubber buffer attachments and two anti-sink baskets for mud and snow.
The grip
Natural cork, stated to absorb sweat and to insulate against cold, with an EVA extension below it for holding lower on a traverse. Between them, that is the best-described grip arrangement in this hub.
The weight, published properly
325 g per pole, stated per pole. It is the highest figure published here, and 169 g sits at the other end of this hub. This page reports it plainly, because a published number that loses a comparison is still worth more than a silence that wins one.
Two listings in this hub publish no usable weight at all.
What it does not publish
No lock type. Stepless telescopic adjustment is stated; nothing says what holds it.
No packed length. A bag is supplied and never measured.
No section count.
Before ordering
If you fly with poles, this listing gives you nothing to check against your luggage. If you walk with them all day, it gives you a grip specification nobody else here matches.

What people ask before buying
Is 325 g a lot?
It is the highest per-pole figure published in this hub, against 169 g at the other end. Whether it matters depends on how far your hands travel in a day rather than on how the poles feel in a shop, and it is worth saying that the listings here that publish nothing at all may weigh more.
Cork or foam?
The maker states natural cork with an EVA extension, so you get both. Cork absorbs sweat and insulates; foam is cheaper, lighter and warmer to the touch when new. The extension is the part you hold on a traverse, and that is the part in foam here.

Folding carbon · 63–125 cm · 169 g per pole stated, the lightest published here · EVA foam grip · snow and mud baskets supplied · lock and packed length not stated
