This is one of the new PSI Dragon Twist Pen kits in Antique Pewter. I have added Green Alcohol ink/dye to the scales, claw, talons, and dragon clip. It has a Tigers Eye crystal held by claws on the end. The blanks are Birdseye Maple Burl also tinted with green Alcohol ink/dye with a blender to soften the color. Finish is a three step buffed wax in order to protect and give the surface a more natural satin skin look. If you are going to put one of these pens together, be very careful with the center band assembly. There is a note added to the instructions that says "DO NOT press directly against threads" Key word here is AGAINST threads. After breaking the first two, I figured out that the threads are over cut and any sideways pressure against them will snap the threaded end off. Even just turning the refill in and out can snap the threads !! Jim S
