I'm a newbie who was spoiled by a gorgeous pink ivory blank I got from Woodturningz a couple of months ago. It had straight grain and an even, deep pink color. The last couple of orders, totaling 13 blanks or so, have had a number of blemishes in them. I'm referring to small black knots or long (1" or so) black streaks.
While I don't fault the supplier as these blemishes don't appear until the blanks have been turned well past round, my question has to do with the desirability of the pen made from these blanks. Is it just me, or would most people be put off by these blemishes? Would anyone buy such a pen?
I'd appreciate your thoughts.
