That is all inlay pieces. About eight (8) pieces

The only color that I can't change is the barrel, it needs to be black for it to work.

I like the Gun and the Cuffs, But the badge to me gives it a toy Look, If you could do a more realistic law enforcement badge (IMHO) it would work better.

Give me an example of what you think would work better?
The problem is the amount of detail that you can put on a small piece of wood, this is not an decal.

That looks great, I hae several friends on a Sheriffs dept and will show them a picture of the pen. How would it look with just the badge?

I am just showing the pen I am not planning on changing it unless It needs a makeover. This was a combo of requests that result in the current format.

Constant,
That is way too cool! I know you say you can't really change much, but how about the "Sheriff" on the badge to "Police"? or DPD on the badge if it was for someone on Dallas PD? If so, I may be interested in ordering a few of these.

That would not be a problem, Those are things that will personalize it for the customers. Good suggestion!

Like this one, Seven point star instead of the five, the center would not matter much if you could get the lettering, Sheriffs Office, Police Department, SWAT TEAM or Department of Corrections. Another style is the shield with the eagle on top.

Let me add my kudos also. My nephew was just elected sheriff of our county. He would love something like this.
FWIW my county uses a 6 point star. Most jurisdictions have different badges for sheriff's department and local police.

To many different options to satisfy everyone, 5 point star, 6 point, 7 point star, a shield...... - to many details just to complicate things.
I try to make it that every person with some basic skills can put a pen together plus the parts should stay in one piece and if there is to much detail cut into it, that becomes a problem.
I might do one with a shield.

Great pen, Constant. Make a dozen or so for the local GSP and keep them on hand for when you see one of GA's troopers. You will definitely make many new friends ...

Great job.. Marshell Reuben J. "Rooster" Cogburn would be proud to have that.

Beautiful pen !! Personally, I would offer the pen to the officer to help him write your ticket. Something tells me you wouldn't have to sign the ticket after that:biggrin:.Regards, Doc
