wood type?

I think this is paduak,am i right? if so it's the orangest i've ever seen.

That would be my guess too. I've had some bloodwood that was more orange than red, but that looks more like Paduak to me. NICE job on the finish!!!

I would agree on the padauk. That is a great finish and you filled the grain well which is hard to do assuming we are correct and it is padauk.

Yep, my first started out that orange. Today it's a deep red.

Great looking finish, BTW.

I have used this wood a lot, it's Paduck. I have some that is even lighter than that, but made an ugly pen IMHO. The grain pores are a dead give away.

Nice pen. Good job on the finish.
