Looks good Jason. The gold clips compliments the blank nicely. "Plain" as it is.

That's got a nice combination of colors, and the shape is nice too!

Ya right Jason !! Just a simple, flawless, kitless, closed end, custom cap, everyday pen !!!! Very nice craftsmanship for a simple pen. Jim S

I was thinking about changing the front section on this pen to the same material as the body..Thoughts?

The material required that you go with simple, classic lines. You did that, executed very nicely. Way to go!

Personally I'd say keep the ebonite section. One from the same material would make it to far out there. You need a break in there somewhere. The pen is awesome. I really like the tapered ends. Fit-Finish-and Photo's are top knotch!

 

[jyreene]

I think it would work but I think it works better with the Ebonite. Maybe breaking it up with a custom band in there would work but not all the same material. As Jonathon said it would be too long of a section then.

I think the way it is gives it that 30's classic look with the ebonite section.

Thank you, Yes I think we will keep it as is.

Is that how your pen looked in the 30's Roy? HAHAHAHA

Beautiful pen Jason, lovely blank!

Nice work! The I like how the chips give it a sort of 3 dimensional look.
