WOW!! I had a different image entirely based on your last post. I was thinking it would look something like the leather patchwork from the 60s.

That is the look I was going for with this pen.
You nailed it! Now we just have to sharpen it and add saw serations to one side;)
Oh and a compas on the end!
 
Did you do this one just since the posing about leather pens the other day? I love the job you did with it and the arrowhead prop for the pic. It reminds me of a hunting knife I used to have years ago.

It was in the works, but I thought I would post the other day and see about finishing with CA or something else.
 
Nice job, but I think a natural waxed finish might work better, The gloss CA / leather seems wrong to me. I have thought about this myself a few times and might just give it a go.

Very good lookin pen all the same! ;)
