Very nice Bruce. Super fit. Is that your blank? Nice job, very nice job.

At first I thought the bend in the clip was an optical illusion. The second picture cleared that up,
Nice pen and interesting clip - a real winner.

cool pen, nice work!
10!
Wow! Double closed-end, hidden clip, custom clip, hand-threaded, custom blank. I'm not sure you could have added any additional degree of difficulty yet you still created a magnificent pen! (And the nib isn't too shabby, either)

nicely done! excellent consistency in design. I like that the clip goes the opposite direction of the body pattern, tendency is to make it match.

Nearly everything has been said.
But I have to comment on the black ends ---
<center>inspired!!!</center>
Hope you don't mind if I use a similar technique on one that's been in MY basement for months. Also looking for the right approach. I think this is it!!! (Though I certainly won't be trying to copy the many completely UNIQUE techniques, pointed out by Lou!!)
GREAT work!!
And the title is appropriate for YOUR work and Eagle's attitude!!
Congratulations!

You mentioned this at the picnic and showed us the clip, but I still couldn't imagine how nice the pen would turn out. You did a great job, one to be proud of.

I'm all bent out of shape admiring your creation. Another "weaving" masterpiece.
Thanks again to all for the comments. The clip is made from a sheet of sterling silver, hand cut to rough shape with a jewelers saw, then filed and polished. 2 pins are soldered on the back side which go into 2 holes drilled in the finial.

Bruce,
Can you share some details about your pen?
What materials did you use.
What is the story behind the clip.
Interested to know.

That looks awesome!
Blank is ebony with veneers making the wave.
Finial, center band, coupling, and nib end are black ebonite.
Clip is sterling. There is no story, just tried to mirror the wave.

Very nice work Bruce. Taking a great custom blank and customizing it further with your own touches. Very nice.
