My daily carry pens change a lot. If I make a new pen I like, I'll carry it, at least for a while. One of my all time favorites is a PSI Knurl GT in antique brass. The blank is from Exotic Blanks, called "Elusive Blue". I've used this pen for several years. I seem to always come back to it.
My current daily carries are two PSI Clip Bolt Action, one in anodized green (discontinued) and one in stainless. The blank on the green one is Cosmic Dark Bronze. The stainless is Knights Armor.
My daily use pen at work is another Knurl GT, in Thailand rosewood. I've also used this pen for several years.
I'm REALLY digging the utility of the EDC Duraclick in stainless. Made several for myself, each in the pen pocket of a different vest.
Rose woods, for the most part.
One big improvement to me, as I live in a sometimes wet or muddy Oregon, and work outdoors, is I uprgraded the ink to the Parker style "Space Pen" refill.
Now I can, (and do!), write where ever I want. Even upside down! ;>)
The figure in the bronze blank is definitely subtle. But I like it. It shows up better in the sun.Those look fantastic. I recently received the anodized green Bolt Action as well and was going to use a camo blank but I'm really liking the Cosmic Dark Bronze. If it looks half as good in person as it does in the pictures I think it's worth ordering.
Is that the black enamel wearing off?This is a pen I sold to a customer about 10 months ago. He writes a lot! lol
The Irish bog oak held up well though.

Nice idea for display stand!Mine is a fountain pen - JoWo #6 nib, Curly Koa barrel, black ebonite cap and section, handmade Titanium alloy clip (though the clip is not the same one as in this photo).

Cosmic Dark Bronze Pen Blank
Let the cosmic effect of these magnificently colored blanks help you create a stunning pen. The appearance of your pen changes as you rotate with deep swirls of color variations inside the blank. Turns beautifully with sharp tools. Blanks are 3/4" x 3/4" x 5" undrilled blanks.www.exoticblanks.com
