Had someone bring me a few sticks of some really nice curly koa that he had brought back from when he was stationed in Hawaii...all the scraps he had left from a piece he had entered in a woodturners contest there, and placed...no pressure...simple little comfort kit..no pressure...all the scraps he has left...simple little comfort kit..no pressure....darn I'll be happy when he accepts it..

Very fine set you made there John, No pressure. [] I hope you were able to pocket a few sticks for yourself. That is some fine Koa.

Glad to see you post a pen, I thought you had retired []

I love/hate koa. When I can finish a blank it is love. When I tear the top out it is hate. I have learned that maybe Fred's grit gouges are a good tool. I actually use my Sorby fingernail gouge on the koa with good success.

BTW, I forgot to compliment you on a job well done.

That is some great looking Koa. Hope you had some left over for yourself. Very nice looking pens, don't see many comfort grips any more.
