WOW!! The figure on both pens is out of this world. I have some curly pink ivory, but it looks nothing like yours. Beautiful!

I think the afezila is called xylay. Which is different from the burl. I have several pens made from this and some more sticks too. I love the stuff! And yours looks WONDERFUL!

Very pretty pens! I just don"t have the patience for enduro. It seems to take to long to cure. I've had pens dry for 3 days then put them in the pen holder remove them and they have marks from the holding bands and even from the cloth. Never have that problem with the ca/blo. I commend you on your patience and pens.

Beautiful pair of pens. The wood on both is stunning.

I initially had that problem with Enduro, but I started using Tripoli as a first step in buffing, and it took those lines out. The suggested instructions that came with the Enduro said to use only white diamond and carnuba. I just can't stand the smell of CA and it burns my eyes too much; plus, I can't seem to keep it out of the bushings. I guess, like in all things, I would develop a technique with time, but the smell gets to me.

Hans is right, the afzelia is xylay, not burl. That aside, those are two pieces of art!!
