Realized I've only ever posted a single pen. Also thought Louis might want to know that I don't simply horde the blanks I buy.

I think I'll use my spalted hackberry for kindling. That is some beautiful timber. Oh, by the way, the pen is excellent, too.

While it's been said, the beauty of the pen is evident, but I think the way you captured it truly gives the viewer a feel for the pen. The contrasting base it sits in against a faded wood shop adds a nice touch to this sharp pen.

Jeremy that is one beautiful pen. You certainly captured the beauty of the wood. Did this blank come from one of the stopper blanks?

No, it was one I'd gotten previously from you. Thanks.

They were just naturally sharply defined, no special tricks :)
