A few more pens

[bitshird]

I had some time over the past two weeks, a few hours anyway to actually turn pens, Wow what a long strange trip it's been.
First is a Honduras Rosewood Burl, with a bit of sapwood which I got a while back from Rodney (Wolfdancer) on an Imperial Rollerball kit, I realize these are becoming a dime a dozen pen, but they will still be a high class pen.

And a Cactus blank from Curtis (Mesquiteman) on a Jr Retro Fountain kit, I love turning his blanks.

Ken, both look great, but I always favor Honduras Rosewood Burl.

Awesome pens Ken. I can not decide which one I like best, they are both beautiful. Nice work.

 

[CSue]

Nah, Ken . . . they'll never be a "dime a dozen."

Gorgeous pens!

Nice work Ken. You got a couple of beaut's there.

Great job on both! I really like the HRB and the cactus blank goes well with the retro. Thanks for sharing.

I like the Imperial a lot. They are both very nice looking pens. Nicely Done.

Louis it's not fair, you got to see it in person, I really hope CSUSA has enough sense to come up with a decent replacement for the Imperial, I only have two left and they are in black TI and will be slipped into Casien, I wish I could find a Gold fountain to pair with this Rollerball, I have several nice pieces of HRB left.

Great looking pens Ken!! your finish and photos are first class.

 

[David Keller]

Beautiful pens... I'm kinda partial to that HRB.

 

[wizard]

Very nice work !!! The pens are truly regal looking!

Great job! I like the natural look on them. Sometimes the high gloss of our CA finishes gets a little overbearing. These finishes are toned down and very natural which really highlights the wood in the HRB and the cactus in the other pen. I think they are fresh and lovely!
