I think it's a classic. The work (scrimshaw? I may have missed it ) is very, very impressive. The look of the pen and the choice of black titanium accents fits it nicely.
Hoffie,
Thanks for the mention. I love seeing my blanks turn into something beautiful. Especially since I can't finish holly worth a darn. Nice job. Thanks for telling me about your post. Ken did some awesome work too, as always.
