snakewood euro

[altaciii]

I had a client call me and request a snakewood euro. Seems his last and favorite pen grew legs and walked off. I cut the blank from a half log I purchased about a year ago. The euro is blk titanium purchased in the group buy from CS put on by Kris Cotterman. I think I prefer the black ti Euro sold by Ernie at Beartooth and woodcraft. I have been practicing with my camera. All comments welcome good and bad. Thanks.

I hope it doesnt crack on you.

^ I'll cover the top half, you can take care of the lower.

I'm with Skye on this one in saying the "Please don't let my snakewood pen crack" prayer...:worship:

Great looking pen, though! Nice job!! :good::smile-big:

Sure give the preacher the thinner wood! :tongue:

should have it engraved. Less likely to get legs. Very nice pen. Shows why the snakewood is why almost everyone wants to try this wood except for some having a problem with it cracking after it ages. I have tried Textdurango's lead and CA finish on two and no cracking. Granted it has only been about 3 months, but still no cracking.
