That is one sweet piece of CK!! A beautiful pen as a result!!

First saw CK when I visited Aaron Lau some years back. He had some magic pieces.

That is a beautiful timber and well suited kit. If I may make a suggestion about the photography. If you have a DSLR camera, use the Aperture priority mode and increase to the highest number that you have thereby increasing the depth of field, and the whole pen will be clear. Otherwise only part of the pen appears clear. If you are using an auto camera with no aperture priority then this can be tricky. I love the wood, its so good!

I really like the look of the curly koe and it fits really well with the gun metal JR Gent. Great fit and finish.

I love curly woods of any kind, But Koa may be the best of them all. Great looking pen.

Great advise from tgsean. And if you are using an auto camera, don't use the zoom when you take the picture. You can use the zoom to focus, but then back it out. Take the picture from about 3 feet away & crop the photo.
