I like the black shaft. Looks so cool. From my experience, the Ambutech handles get dirty or stained quite easily so be sure to wash it off periodically. My daughters was blue with purple accents.
Hi Carrie That’s a pretty cool looking cane! You must love the color pink lol! I like your sons colors on his cane too. Hope the both of you are doing well, and I sent my love to both of you.
Hey Mark it's great to hear from you! How are you doing? Yes I really do like the color pink and Joseph really likes the color red. I do find that the ball is a little bit heavy though .
The problem with deviating from the standard white (and red) cane coloring is that it creates confusion among the general population about what a blind cane should look like and dilutes its signaling value. Not sure the novelty of the different coloring is worth the diminishing safety value.
There are many different arguments on both sides honestly. I don't really agree with the whole confusion aspect of it though. A lot of people who Are not blind or visually impaired don't know what a white cane is anyway. They can be very confused whether or not you use the white and red standard cane. What does concerned mean more is the visibility of using a black cane. Mostly I got this cane for esthetic purposes and don't really intend to use it in situations where I believe I need people to know that I'm blind, Specifically outside. People are confused anyway. I think there should be variety and that just like there are many different types of wheel chairs, colors, and more, people should recognize the cane for what it is, not what color it is. When it comes to indoor situations, there's much less at risk as there are no cars around. But of course, we don't live in an ideal world, so decisions are personal and each can carry a bit of risk.
You have a good point, that I also thought of, but then I figured the blind person will be using it the same way the standard cane is used so I think most people will get what's going on!
I disagree with the assumption that most people get it. That requires attention and thought process which most people don’t give. It should be simple and not require thought.

Yes this is definitely true . Great! I try to wash the whole cane off here and there and sanitizer is really helpful . :D

That looks nice. I hope you like it and will enjoy it.
Thanks Larry! Really appreciate that! I have been enjoying it.
@@carrieonaccessibility that is awesome happy for you
I have almost the same cane except I went with white instead of black for the shaft since it's my daily driver. It definitely stands out though!
Cool. :D So are you team pink?!
@@carrieonaccessibility definitely not team green 😜
