Thanks for the reply's. It gives me a start to try to figure out what I have. You can't give a pen away without knowing what you have. I am totally new at this.

A good shot of the well sanded end grain is usually the most help in wood identification . Then you can look at this site HobbitHouse Wood ID site , and compare many photos to your samples . As mentioned above , narra has a very characteristic smell . So does walnut . You might enhance the smell by moistening the surface and doing some comparisons if you have known samples of the other woods mentioned .
