Icon Lyptus

[qquake]

My first Icon pen, in brass, from PSI. The wood is lyptus, and is a form of eucalyptus, according to the Wood Database. I was going to turn it with a slight bulge in the body, but messed up on one end, and had to turn it straight instead. It's a little thin for my tastes, but I know a lot of people who really like slim pens. Regardless of my opinion, it is a good looking pen. I think the lyptus pairs well with the brass.

Nice looking pen. I had never heard of Lyptus before, from the Eucalyptus family I presume. - Dave

I like the sweeping style to be honest . That looks like a nice pen to use.

Honestly, it's too thin for me to use comfortably. But I have friends who love thin pens.
