Kits are the Phoenix from "woodturningz" interesting in that they taper from about 9/16"at the nib joiner down to about 31/32" at the clip end (thats about the size of the standard sierra bushes. It is a bit longer in the body as well ,but feels a good solid pen
Cheers ~ John

john that is a special looking pen, i love the look of the black with white, and the red just gives it that bit extra
its allways nice to have a bit of time to do some fancy ones

Looks good John, I am sure the recipient will be pleased with that one.

How is the refill changed on that pen, does it unscrew, or does it pull apart like the Sierra ?

I wish someone would redesign the Sierra, so that the bottom section unscrewed to change the refill. I reluctantly keep making them, because they sell well.

Ironwood you can change the refill either way,pull apart like a standard sierra, or it unscrews just ahead of the fancy band , if you sell a lot of sierras these are the next class up I suspect . I like them as more material on show for the nicer blanks . I have yet to cast any blanks for them but I think will be good for embedded castings that need more meat on the body . Cheers ~ John

Very Nice as usual John

Cheers

Hey John. Great pen mate. I like the kit too, unusual design, and really shows off the blank well.
