Here are some (five) of the pens I made in the last few days.
1 Jr Statesman with Amboyna Burl
2 Desire with White Tail Antler
3 Navigator Sterling Silver with Greek Briar Burl
4 Navigator Sterling with B&W Mokume M3
5 Cigar Ultra with Mexican agate

Comments and critique welcome - looking on how to improve.

Nice burls!

I think you mislabeled the component set for #3.

That m3 looks great on that pen

Keith; Very nice work on your pens. I would have used Gun Metal or Black on the antler, gives it a more manly look. Crome seems to wash out the off white of the the horn. I like more contrast in colors. Thats just my idea anyway. Jim S

All very nice. Great work.
Thank you for sharing it is encouraging to see really nice pens for those of us who are not at that level yet. Keeps us motivated.

Thanks! I agree with the Gun metal or Black titanium - customer is always right!

They all look well turned and finished. The photos are nicely done as well.
