WOW. I am looking into the Fishers of Men pen. I like that one very much. And the one piece is good. The middle is wider than the rest of the pen, is this right?

Center is slightly wider. Just looked with micrometer, ends are .333 and the center is .412. For the most part I don't like a perfectly straight barrel.

Gotcha. I kept turning a Tradional Roller Ball with a straight barrel and I could not make that pen look attractive unitl I added a contour. Good work. I could not find that pen, but I was able to order the Fisher of Men.

The slim is a standard slim line. The only difference is the bottom brass tube is not glued in place so everything is held by the transmission in the upper tube. I'll either keep it as my daily use pen or give it to someone with the provision they know I will be checking with them to see how the wood at the nib end is holding up. I like it so if I know it will stand up I will make more like it.

Nice job on the slimline - If the bottom brass tube is in there and turning freely within the wood, I think you'll find it holds up fairly well.

Both are nice looking pens. The stained glass blank goes well with the black ti.
