A few recent pens

[Draken]

Here's a bunch of them, the BEB Violet/Teal finish were left with wood character still showing (as opposed to a totally smooth finish) so it wouldn't look so much like an acrylic. Both sold, and the new owners really like the character. Thanks for looking, and any comments, questions and suggestions are welcome.

Cheers,
Draken

Great looking group of pens.

 

[Draken]

Sorry I was short in my first posting, had a lot going on. Here is what each is made of, in order:
BEB Violet/Teal
BEB Violet/Teal
Nairoc
Ribbon Sapele (finally got this one done!)
Amboyna Burl
African Blackwood

The top baron actually had two people here at work fighting over who got to buy it. They both loved how the blank turned out, and both prefered the lighter color of that blank than the other one. The other person ended up purchasing the cigar. The letter opener is my second experiment with shapes.

Thanks for all the comments, truly apprecaited!
