Here are 3 that I finished today. I am doing some more experimentation with the Churchills. I got a closed end mandrel in the mail and had to try it out.

First is a Sterling Silver Trustone Churchill with some modifications.

Next is a segmented Box Elder Burl Sierra.

Last is a Sierra with one of the new WC acrylics called Superhero.

The workmanship is excellent on all of them. The segmented pen is very well done. My comment about the Churchill is based on my own personal opinion, so it's worth exactly what it cost you.[:D] It always bothers me when the closed end is a larger diameter than the cap. I've never seen one from a company like Omas or Visconti or Bexley or any of the others where the closed end is bigger than the cap. There's probably a reason for it. Secondly, I think the Churchill needs a rounded closed end to compliment the finial. The centerband is very nice and so is the clip treatment.
