Ideally you still have the sticker near the bottom of your pole to tell you which version you exactly have.
Lost it? No problem: Aside from obvious things like segment count and length, the different QuickPole lines visually mostly vary in the tip ring color and the shape and surface of the locking nuts. Check the pictures below to quickly identify which series your QuickPole belongs to and find the exact model by comparing the lenght to the table on the right:
