Carry On Baggage Question

I am traveling to Milan Italy on Delta Airlines on Sept. 12 and returning on Sept. 30. I would like to bring my hiking poles and would like to know if they will be allowed as carry on. They break down and measure 26" when folded. They have rubber tip covers.

Here is Delta's policy for carry-on items. Note the measurements below are approximate, so you may be able to carry on the hiking poles, but unfortunately it's no guarantee. CARRY-ON SIZE RESTRICTIONS

It won’t fit. Three words you don’t want to hear when trying to board. To avoid delays and possible checked bag fees, follow these size requirements:

Baggage may not exceed 45 linear inches (or 114 cm) in combined length, width and height, including any handles and wheels
Baggage must fit easily in the Carry-on Baggage Check (approximately 22" x 14" x 9" or 56 x 35 x 23 cm), which is located near the check-in counters
