Nice pens! I think red oak is one of the woodiest looking woods out there (in a good way). Sometimes we get caught up in making a pen (or whatever) from the most exotic thing we can find and forget that there is a lot of beauty in the easy-to-find woods as well.

Very nice work. I wish pens like that would sell better. I like the look of natural wood. But alas, I use red oak to make bushings for making pens, not the pens themselves.
