I prefer thin pens. The attached picture is three of my latest attempts. All use 7mm tubes and twist mechanisms and are finished with Shellawax.
The one on the left is tulipwood on the top with a ziricote band and Honduran rosewood on the bottom. This has become my pocket pen because I find it comfortable to hold.
The middle pen is padauk on top with a ziricote band and maple on the bottom. It is similar in shape to a Garland pen I got years ago and is the pen I carry at work.
The pen on the right is pink ivory with an ebony band and a maple bottom. My mother was a breast cancer victim and I plan to make several more of these pens to give to close friends in her memory. Some will have the stylus tip and some will have the finial from a chrome slimline.
Your comments and critics are most welcome.
