I love the wood on both of them and it looks like the fit and finish are perfect. Well done buddy.
As of this time I am now teaching vets again.  If you have any lumber scraps we can use them to glue up to make some bowl from a board which we have not done yet..  Thank You Everyone.

It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

Beautiful pens Steve. I have never seen African black wood with that kind of figure in it. VERY well done.

A couple years ago I spent $4k on an African blackwood burl log that had figure to put this to shame.



I still have some left that I am saving for emperor kits.

Man that is some drop dead gorgeous wood. Hope you keep that locked up at night. That is probably the nicest pen I have ever seen.
