Snakewood Berserker (Kitless)

[greeneyedblackcat]

I got a little crazy with this one, I built it to resemble a Medieval Berserker war club, It has a G2 rollerball insert. The entire pen is kitless, hand built from stainless and snake wood. I plan on making a desk stand for it. Hope you like it>>>>>>>>JK >>>>>>>>>>>>I added a few more pictures taken in the sun.

... the pen is mightier than the sword after all.

Thats pretty damn cool

 

[OKLAHOMAN]

That's some dragon slayer ! Just don't get that snakewood too close to the dragon's hot breath, wouldn't want it to crack instead of the dragon.

 

[Jim15]

Another awesome pen. You do beautiful work.

 

[mostangrypirate]

as a guy that makes pens, I don't usually consider buyer a pen(thats' just me.) but I would spend money on that thing. great job.

 

[Ligget]

Nice looking project!!

Have you worked with snakewood before? Do you have a secret to keep it from cracking or do you just keep your fingers crossed??:wink:

 

[workinforwood]

Totally out there. Well done of the crazy pen, it's pretty cool.

Very creative work!

 

[stolicky]

Very creative... Tough wood, too.

I wouldn't attempt to get that through airport security!

 

[cnirenberg]

That is very cool.

Didn't CS Lewis use that to write "Lord of the Rings"?


That is some SWEET craftsmanship!!!

I do hope you are jesting...


If you could spool up a shows worth, I think there is still time till DragonCon in Atlanta. I don't remember about when the Skirmishes convention is but they would go over well there as well.

Randy, Snake wood is kind of a double edged sword (NO PUN INTENDED I always drill it slow (real slow,like days) then a real quick dip in the acetone to remove some of the oils. Then I CA the crap out of it (inside and out), I think the acetone paves the way for the CA. After that I let it sit for a day or so to harden up before turning, reapplying acetone/Ca as I go. But as you know with snake wood there are no guarantees. I chose it for this pen because even if it does crack, that would just make it look more medieval

Awesome work!

Do all your pens double as weapons? :biggrin:

YUP, you should see the Bazooka one :0

 

[Kaspar]

Very, very cool. It seems to small to be a heavy weapon and too dangerous to be a pen. Looks like you could accidentally impale digits on it.

FYI to whomever said it: C.S. Lewis wrote the Narnia stories and the Cosmic Trilogy. His friend JRR Tolkien wrote Lord of the Rings (which silly people have mistaken for a Fantasy Story.)

Hey, if any of you guys see JRR Tolkien tell him I got his pen and I'm holding it for ransom. :biggrin:

Well if any of us sail on to Valinor, we'll pass on the message to him, but I don't think he will be responding anytime soon.

 

[ahoiberg]
