Mike,
I'm with the rest of the guys here. There just aren't the right words in the dictionary to accurately describe your work and this pen. Please let us know if you were accepted into the Pen Makers Guild. If this pen doesn't get you in, I don't know what will!
Thank you for your time and effort and showing us this beauty

Mike, I add my sincere congratulations. Like they said: the bar has definitely been raised. Your pen is an absolute masterpiece. The other nice part about seeing your pen showcased is that finally that inferior leather pen is now gone/since that leather pen is mine, I guess I can safely say that. Even though I still appreciate the staff choosing my pen, it is so nice that they found a much better one to replace it.

Beautiful.

Not to take anything away from what you've done: some years ago when I first started making pens, I talked to Eagle about doing basically what you've done -- making pens with "slip-cover" interchangeable barrels.
He told me I was nuts and to forget it; I put it aside for too long and now you've done it.
Congratulations.
The star goes to those who shoot for the moon!
Well done sir.
