Below are some of my customer's comments on my custom wood walking
sticks, wood canes, and wood hiking sticks. These testimonials
were all unsolicited !

"You ARE a hit! The stick
arrived just fine on Friday at 3:00 PM .... The pictures really
didn’t do justice to the stick itself and it was appropriately
craggy and gnarly. Thanks so much for all your hard work.
Feel free to use us as a reference just any old time and if you
ever find yourself in southwestern Pennsylvania, do look us up!
We’ll check out a good rail-trail!" Pam

"Bill,
The Party and the sticks were a HUGE success. My parents were very
impressed and pleased with the sticks. Dr. ...., a Korean doctor
that used to work with my dad, was particular amazed calling them
"the new family bible". We took pictures and when I get a moment
I will send you some pictures. As I knew my mom would be, she was
very interested in where they came from and how they were made and
she really enjoyed the artwork and the information that you sent
along with the sticks. Everyone was just really, really pleased.
Thanks so much again."

I got the stick
today; showed everyone in the neighborhood; many impressed faces....
An heirloom. My Anniversary gift early. My thoughts were but of
few words...it is something I will use & cherish for my lifetime
and so glad you were apart of the process...you really are a gem.

"The stick had more power than anticipated.
My burly father wept when he saw it. He knew that a cane of some
sort was in the bag, he just wasn't prepared for the sort of beauty
that he was presented with.
His first outing with his new friend was to the Irish festival
on the riverfront by his home. He was stopped several times and
took great pride in retelling the tale of how he became in possession
of his walking stick and of the love (by the artist and by his
daughter) that created such a precious gift.
I must tell you that from the first photo through to the last,
I saved and compiled a short travelogue of the sticks journey.
My family was intrigued by the pains taken on your half to produce
a stick worthy of Harry himself. Thank you.
Art is not just in the eye of the beholder, but in the hand of
the fortunate few who hold it near to their hearts. And in the
case of my father; the thick, calloused hand that caresses a wooden
extension of himself-his walking stick."

"I received my walking stick,
and it is perfect! The height is perfect, and the feel of the wood
is very nice. Everything came out perfect. Can't wait to use it
on my first nature walk. Thank you so much.
I also have to compliment you on the paperwork that you send along
with your walking sticks. It's very classy and professional....
Thanks again and the best to you."

you so much for the work. You have been a

"Dear
Bill;
I wanted to drop a line and say Thank you for making my walking
stick.
I've been on multiple hikes in the the everglades and along the
beachs
of this awesome gulf coast. ..I especially love the balance of it
when
walking across rocky outcroppings or along the rocks at the beachfront
it's light yet solid. Already, can't imagine ever going hiking or
exploring without it at my side. One of my friends is an Army Ranger
and he attached a pace cord to the leather so I will always know
how
many steps I've traveled.
I'll carry a piece of you with me on each adventure from now on,
so I
hope when you look at the sun overhead or the moon glowing on a
ridge
that you think of me and how much I love your special gift of giving.......
Happy trails to you friend~"

and I am very pleased with it. I just love the design, the detail
on the wood burning is fabulous! You do excellent work!" "....Thank
you so much and if I am in need of more custom wood work I will
definitely be in touch with you.THANK YOU again and it was a pleasure
doing business with you." Sandy, California |
| "I am amazed! It is so beautiful!
I don't think any picture would do it justice....no matter how good
the camera. It's something you really have to touch and hold to
appreciate. I am just stunned. It was so pretty....." Annette,
Illinois |
| "Got the stick today. It's
perfect. Thanks for the great customer service..." "
If you ever want a testimonial about your great
customer service, just let me know." Larry, Maryland |
BILL!!! The walking stick was
a success, and my dad's first response (he didn't have his glasses
on yet) was "it is so light!". This may not mean a lot
to you or me... but dad I guess has looked at many walking sticks
and they tend (as you know) to be very heavy. Once he got the glasses
on, my LOVED the stick. My husband (the newest member to our family)
wrote a 3 page explanation of why we chose what we did, how we had
it made (i.e. YOU).. etc. Dad was in tears. It was a success, and
I loved it as well.
Kari, Iowa |
| "Your Artwork looks great!
It probably holds up really well once it "wears in" too.
I am amazed at the detail that you can get with that technique."
Stephen, Arizona |
"The stick...I
am at a loss for words. I cannot seem to put it down. It begs to
be held and caressed. The weight of it and the fissures and curves
are perfection."
Jane, Illinois |
"....the walking stick looks
great"
Jessica, Georgia |
"I received the stick yesterday
and just returned from a hike with it - I'm
so pleased, and thank you very much for making it.... The color
is amazing. Thanks again".

and the sticks you showed me were perfect, .....I really can't thank
you enough for this one." Bobby, Kansas City, Kansas |

two walking sticks a couple of months ago. Very happy with them.
I'd like to order another walking stick..." Larry, Md. |
Hi Bill,
"Stick arrived yesterday. ......... From what I've seen briefly,
it is awesome!
I'm going to show it off to a couple of my friends today.......
Thanks so much."
Alice,
Texas
"I showed the stick to several co-workers
yesterday and they all really liked the stick. Everyone seemed
most impressed wi/ the coyote. I'm glad we added that. People
were surprised on how light it is. I think the heighth will be
just fine. I had a couple guys hold it yesterday and it seemed
just right, particularly for hiking in the Hill Country."
Thanks again - pleasure doing business with you.
Later, Alice....Texas

| "I was
full of anticipation, as you can imagine, all this time!!!! I loved
the fact that you wrap and box everything so well and carefully
and I just couldn't wait to un-do the last of the white plastic
on the walking stick. When I had it upright, uncovered and in my
sights, well....I just stood there and said, "Oh my!!! - this
is so gorgeous!!!" - and couldn't stop looking/inspecting it.
Bill, it is just as you described it; just like the scans, only
better now because I have the REAL THING IN MY HANDS and room here!"

Bill, it's beautiful!
The Walking Stick feels light, balanced and deserving of many, many
miles.
Arrived here very quickly, I must add.
I'm so looking forward to delivering this gift tomorrow to my pal
headed out West.
I'm hopeful RMF and her stick will participate in many explorations
& adventures.
Thank you kindly for your work and timely delivery.
Thank you too for your "care of" insert....

caressed. The weight of it and the fissures and curves are perfection.
Did you find the tree root or did it find you- there seems to be
a connection that goes beyond luck of the draw. Of course that is
the gift of your craft. You see the potential, and make it so."
Jane, Illinois |

Thank
you so much Bill... for your patience and effort. I'm sure she
will LOVE this as it is a pretty uncommon gift... yet made to
last a LONG time. Thanks again. I have other burnings I'm interested
in, I hope to be in contact soon. Thanks again.

I did get the stick today.
I don't think that I could fully express my
thoughts on the stick... You were so patient, open to ideas and
very easy to
work with. I really wanted to give my father something very personal
and
special and you accomplished that for me. The pictures were great,
but
actually holding it just reaffirmed the fine craftsmanship and how
much I
know my father will love it. I can't thank you enough for your work.
When
I tell my father about the stick, I will surely talk about the maker.
Sincerely,
Amy Lee

Today, we received Betty's cane. The attached
photo should explain how we feel about the "special cane"
you made for Betty.
Both of us are very pleased and satisfied with
the workmanship and effort you put in on her cane.
Please name a type (name/manufacturer) of wax
we should use.
Thanks for all your effort and thank you for
the pedometer. I think I will try it out first to determine how
many times I go in and out of the kitchen!!!
Betty is looking forward to using your cane when
we go shopping or to her doctors which ever comes first.
Kindest regards,

Dear Bill,
Your walking stick is getting many compliments. I had friends in
every night last week and everyone complimented you and your work.
Especially, the people who knew the Yucca plant and the wood, |
"Perfect... don't know how
you have the patience and dexterity to do this work, but you do
an excellent job." .... " Thanks again for your great
skill and even better service."
Glenn, NJ |
| "She loved it. Plus everyone
I know has heard of your generosity and wanted the site." .....
" I hope I can drum you up more business. Thanks!"

Hi, Bill.
Just wanted to say thanks for the really fine kokopelli walking
stick you sent last week. It arrived on Friday and the recipient
LOVED it immediately!!
May the beauty of your work continue to inspire you and all those
you reach in the coming year.

Dear Bill,
I received the walking stick today, and it looks wonderful. I am
very pleased with it and cannot wait to give it to the person it
was made for. Thank you so much, it was easy to working with you
through the whole process! Honest people are hard to find sometimes.
Sincerely,

The walking stick arrived yesterday (Friday,
June 2nd).
It is absolutely wonderful!
I know Kathy will cherish this (and use it) for
many years to come.
Thanks so much for working with me on this. The
wood burning is truly first-class and the leather thong handle
does add a lot.
Enjoy a a terrific summer!
Thanks again.

| Bill,
It's great! I am leaving on the 3rd to go to
my dad's so overnight or two
day would be fine. Make sure you list this on your site, I had
an
impossible time trying to find some one who makes them, but you
did better
than some I have seen already made! Thanks again for all of your
hard work.

Hey Bill,
Got the walking stick today. It came two days ago, but I missed
the mail at home so I had to pick it up from tue post office. So
it definitely got here real quick. Anyway, looks awesome. You really
did a great job. Thanks so much

Bill,
I really wanted to let you know how happy I am. This walking stick
is an actual extension of my body.
I've been walking with a cane made from soft white pine. It was
made for me in 1984, by a brother of a friend who lived in KY.
This Juniper wood has a unique texture. The leather wrap makes a
fantastic handle. If sitting, I get up and the natural
height of the of the handle is perfect for my arm extension.
People compliment me all the time. I get into conversations with
a variety of individuals.
I am so much more ambulatory than I was, when using my cane. I usually
take two steps before I touch the floor In front of me. Every time
my left leg went forward I would bring my cane forward on my right.
My stick only goes forward,on my right side every other time my
left leg goes forward. This helps me walk a little faster.
I am so happy with my purchase.

| Bill,
Received the walking stick this a.m. and it DOES look nice! I
like the hawk and lightning flash, and
the grip is perfect.
Pat, Md
|
| Thank you very much. It is awesome. Worth waiting
for. Its amazing. I thought it would be longer than the cane
that I currently have but it was shorter. When I put both canes
in each hand I see now why it was important to measure. Your cane
is a perfect fit. It helps to walk natural. Its amazing the
difference. It stops me from leaning over when I am in pain. With
the other cane I would experience pain across my shoulders but I
thought it was because the cane was too short but it was too long
and was throwing my alignment off.
Everyone loves it! Thank you so much for your hard work.
Gwen, Maryland

Hey Bill,
I got the cane yesterday and I was extremely pleased. The pictures
that you sent prior to shipping didnt do it justice. The
wood that you selected is perfect and the burnings and inlay are
just what I wanted. Thank you so much for your perfection !

Thank you so much, you've gotten it EXACTLY as I could have dreamed.

I can honestly say this is VERY COOL, and I can't wait to see it!!

I just wanted to let you know that I received the walking stick
today. It is absolutely beautiful. I gave it to Kurt, and he was
very moved. He loved it, as well, and said that I may have just
started a new tradition.
Thank you so very much for your patience and your attention to the
details which make this memorial walking stick perfect. We will
enjoy it for a lifetime.

Hi Bill,
Lisa's walking stick arrived today, and she absolutely loves it!
The mail lady made Lisa open it in front of her so they both could
ooh and aah over it. The personal touches really make it one-of-a-kind.
Thank you for the timely delivery as well.
As I'm sure she will get stopped by other hikers asking about where
she got it, may I have your permission to pass on your contact information?
Best Wishes,

| Bill,
The staff came today. The color, knotted character, grips, burns
and feathers combined to make a truly unique staff. I was especially
impressed with the burns; the images you sent really didn't do
them justice. I'm looking forward to using it during the next
pack outing. Thanks for all your work and efforts.

Hi Bill,
That is Really Beautiful. The detail is amazing and so is the color.
I would love to see how you do it! It came out better than I ever
expected. I can't wait to get it. I hope he's not here when it comes,
I have to hide it because it is an anniversary gift.
Thank you so much!
Shelley |
Dear Bill,
OMG! Today is our anniversary and I can't even begin to tell you
how much my husband LOVES his walking stick. I don't know if I have
ever seen him so surprised, he REALLY WAS SURPRISED. What a success!
I was going to write you a long time ago when it arrived because
it is more beautiful than I imagined. I knew it was going to be
good but you really have to see them in person to totally appreciate
them. I decided to wait until after he saw it to e mail you. You
are a man with Amazing talent. Must be nice
Thank You So Much,
Shelley

Bill,
I got the sick today. It's great. I love all the designs and text.
I have to get use to it being natural (a little thicker and bent
compared to my old pvc pipe) but will be just what I need. Thanks

morning a terrific start of the day with your email. Wow! You are
to be commended on your magnificent work. I am so proud to own a
walking stick created and made by you, Bill. Your spirit of design
is truly an art to be treasured for a lifetime! I will be a repeat
customer for sure. When my friends see my walking stick I know that
they will want one too.

| A few days ago, I did a 'tidy up' of 'My Favourites'
where I've kept the web address's for websites of varying interest
to me. There was a lot to tidy up. I then came across a folder specifically
for when I was trying to find someone who would make a customised
walking stick. There was over 15 walking stick manufacturers, the
majority of which do 'customised work'. Yours is the only one, out
of all these 'international' companies who were able to help. I
think that says a lot in itself. Yes, there may be others that I
didn't come across, but considering that I spent several days searching
for one, I would say your pretty unique, in every way. Your work
speaks for itself! I even then went through 'all' the negative e
mail replies from these companies who could/would not help.

Hi Bill,
The stick has arrived. Its wonderful. Thank you so much for

Again thank you for everything.

| Hello there Bill,
I went to the post office on friday and picked up the walking
sticks. They were truly amazing and worthe the wait. I even gave
one of your cards to another friend who loved my stick and wants
to get one painted red black and green( African american flag
and colors). You should be hearing from him in the next month
or so. Thank you again fro the wonderful job and I will definitely
be in touch with you again. Have a great week thanks.

YOUR WALKING STICK TO EXPRESS.

| Hi Bill,
I hope you had a wonderful holiday season! The cane for Granny
arrived in time for Christmas! It arrived at her South Dakota
address on Christmas Eve day, just as you said it would. Thank
you for all the effort you put into making the cane. Granny loves
it and has been using it. She even took it to a funeral she traveled
to in Colorado. I think the cane gives her a feeling of renewed
independence, as she now doesnt need to rely on holding
on to another person for support. Last night I was reading a bit
more information from your website as I want to print and send
some of it to Granny. I was quite impressed with your environmental
policy, and your apparent love for animals and nature. Knowing
this will mean a lot to Granny as well, as she shares the same
concerns for nature and animals as you do. Thanks again for all
your effort, and your patience with the numerous emails we traded.
God bless!

| I had meant to e-mail you about Garys reaction
earlier . . . .
He basically got choked up, so at the time we gave it to him,
he was very subtle. He was obviously impressed with the quality
of it and the thought behind it, but I dont think he could
quite put it in words at that point.
About a week later, though, we received a nice, handwritten note
of thanks from him via snail-mail . . . said hed read all
of the information youd included about the nature of the
stick, the care of it, etc. and was really impressed. The doctor
has told him to walk, walk, walk for the healing of his foot,
and hes taking the stick with him on walks through the local
forest preserve.
In short . . . he liked it! A lot! Thanks again!

Your walking stick was loved by all. It's amazing how light it is.
I was expecting it to be heavier. Al told us that he will displaying
it on his wall.

I got the Stick today and it is better than I
had ever imagined. You are right......it looks even better than
in pictures. You did a marvelous job. I wish that I could have spent
more money and had more put on there because it all looks so good
and there is still plenty of room. I know Duncan will love it. I
will have to write you again and tell you about his reactions to
the stick, then I will have to send you a pic of Duncan and his
stick. I have enjoyed this all so much.
I'll get back to you on Monday night ,

Dear Bill,
Have been wanting to write to you for a long time, just getting
to it.
Want you to know that you get many compliments on the beautiful
walking stick that you made for me.
It truly is a work of art. Hope you and family are well. Beautiful
warm weather is finally here in NJ and probably in NV too. Enjoy.
Thanks again, Miriam |
Bill
A quick note to tell you I picked up the walking stick on Saturday
and I am very happy with it. I like the way it looks and feels (the
feather was a good idea, thanks). I hope to get out in the next
week or two and actually walk with it.
I intend to tell everyone I see where I got it and tell them about
you. Again, thank you for working with me and giving me such a great,
natural, stick.
