    Very nice pen. I like how in the photography, the overhead lighting makes a straigh line of light down the entire lenght of the pen.

    I am new to pen making or should I say crafting. I just get blown away when I see the pen you and others have made. The bar is set high but some day. Great pen.

    A very nice leaopardwood blank, Les. Good figure in that one. And, of course, another very nice pen. I see the trend is getting slightly larger and I still wait for the day you show us something in an Emperor or a Majestic.
    When all is said and done, there is usually a whole lot more said than done.

    Thanks Cisco.

    It's too bad we can't get the Emperor or Majestic in Canada.
    The shipping costs from the US are a killer!!
    William Wood Write in Canada I think is looking into getting them
