This is an unkown wood (I think it is Teak). Slimline pen finsihed in CA/BLO and topped with TSW. What do you think. Tried something a little different. The POS camera I have doesnt do this any justice
Pull it apart and use a little sandpaper or be really careful with a sharp razor knife to roll the edge. Depending on your finish you might be able to get away with it and refinish it. Or just pop out the finial and stick it back on the mandrel for a quick touch up.
Already in the works....going to turn it down a touch more to help the transition. BTW, the pic makes the upper tube look bigger than it is, but it is still larger than I had initially planned on.
