What do you think of the new look?

I'm using a new color on the walking sticks I make, just something a bit different.

Please let me know your opinion of the color?

Thanks,

I like it. It looks like the Minwax gunstock color stain I use sometimes.

Nice looking but I don't use any color and prefer the "natural" look of the wood.

Assuming the pic gives a fair representation of the color, sticks like that might be of particular use during hunting season. Not exactly hunter orange, but headed in that direction.

Not sure what the stain is but It gives a nice look to the stick. But does take away from what looks like a variety of colors in a number of the sticks shown. I think I prefer the more natural darkening from the use of the oil finishes such as tung, linseed and teak oil.

Interesting! But i like your snake sticks better!

I'm still making the Carved Snake Walking sticks, however I thought I would change the color of the curled sticks to the "gunstock" minwax color.

Not quite as red as the picture makes them look, but more red than a natural color.

I'm hoping my customers will like the new look.

You are correct. The color is gunstock.
