Sylvanite (Eric) sent me this kit, laser engraved with the USMC logo. He provides a quality kit, and you should pick up some of his work if you haven't already.
I'm going to give it to my Dad, a USMC veteran of the early to mid 60's, for Christmas. I used mesquite on the upper portion as, well, I have a lot of it. I used a friction polish on it for two reasons: I have a low sucess ratio with CA on mesquite, and for some reason I think mesquite on a pen does well over time with a person's natural oils making it darken over time (it has with a mesquite pen of mine I've had for 15 years).
