    Nice work on the pens and photography Troy. Nothing wrong with the quality of workmanship and up to your usual high standard on those but not sure I am overly impressed with the blanks I feel they take something away from the quality look of the pens.
    What is your opinion of the blanks Troy?

    the blank is very bright and vivid i would like to have done one in a jr gent to see it on a larger pen kit , yes i do see what you mean about taking away the pen kit , but the most omportant rule HAS to be applied
    " the customer gets what the customer wants "
    i was suprised at how cheap the blank was as well
