This pen is made from an alternate material - Alternate Ebony.
I'll never buy this stuff again. Black acrylic or ebonite look exactly the same when finished. In fact, the finial is black acrylic. Couldn't thread something that small from this alternate material. Actually blew up the first barrel I tried and I'm VERY glad I ordered three blanks instead of two.
I don't see the point of this stuff. There's no appearance of wood grain or anything. Why not just call it brittle black plastic? :tongue:
It's 135mm open, 147mm capped, and 186mm posted.
Section is a pinched 13mm thick, with 9/16" threads for cap to barrel.
