Two of my recent sells

[alphageek]

I don't know why, but in the past cigars have not been a great seller for me. This weekend that changed a bit... I had made a bunch, including some standard, some ultra, and some of the new hybrid cigar.

I had a bunch of new (to me) kit styles and old ones too... This kit was my best seller and in the cigar kit a really decent seller... I love the looks of this kit. Here is 2 of them that sold. One is Corrugata burl from exotics and the other is a Jeff Powell "picasso" blank!

That burl is striking! A beauty.

Both are awesome. I did a double take of the burl, then went I went back for the double take the picasso pen caught my eye and required a double take, so I did a double double take.

VERY nice!

Beautiful work Dean! I'm not surprised they sold..the eyes in that burl are amazing!

2 super nice pens.

Those are fantastic Dean, I really like the Corrugata Burl the eyes are intense, But Mr. Powell's Picasso is a fantastic pen, fine workmanship all the way around on both.

The cigar kit is my favorite right now. Excelent work on both counts, but im a sucker for a nice burl!

 

[David Keller]

Great looking pens. The fancier kits are nice, but I'm a sucker for a nice looking cigar pen.

Thanks for all the positive feedback on these everyone...

As for picking the plating on these Mark, I go the other way around... When I turn a series of cigars, my best results end up on these now, then the rest go on either ultras or plain cigars depending on other things.

At the moment, this is my favorite kit by far. For a "simple cigar" it just screams "classy". The only other one that comes close is the triton.
