Both the Folstaff & Simms have their fans. I had the 1/2" Folstaff, now have the 3/4" & am MUCH more secure with it. It is easily deployed with just a flick of the wrist, very sturdy, folds up smaller, which makes it easier to carry & has a great warranty & rebuild program. If I somehow lost mine, I would buy another.
I am not familiar with the Simms.
