Hmm, I like that. I was actually thinking of doing something similar with mine, but was thinking of using the carbide tip from a cheap walmart trekking pole... Your way might be a bit simpler and cheaper though. Although, I'm not sure how the soft hardware will hold a point and how well it will grab granite, as bear granite is a common feature in the Sierras here.
You could always try getting one of our local artist knife makers to harden some 1/4-20 bolts, or maybe, depending what material the bolts are, harden them yourself.

brizbane: I have been using these tips lately. They are a little pricey but are real well made and cool too. The pointy one is probably good for defense.http://www.leevalley.com/hardware/pa...=3,48759,43733
I looked at those too, but I've never seen replacement points or rubber bottoms.
