Friend on IAP did the same blank except reversed in red, we chatted last night about getting this one out after seeing his! Pic's suck as usual, but the rest came out good! Reversed black and black tubes...even managed a finial! Cut the blank at 2-5/8" which almost left me hosed for the closed-end, but I rounded it rather than flairing so I was safe. Jr Gent parts, MM to 12k and Hutts. Thanks for looking!

Wow, what a gorgeous blank and pen!! Did you make the blank or is it sold commercially? Not like I need more blanks but this one is awful nice.

Pen sales, along with all other sales, have been extremely slow up here in the great north woods. Used to sell lots until the pen hobby exploded. Been doing this since 1996 and still enjoy it but some sales would be nice.

Jim I like it, especially like the custom finial. An outstanding looking pen.
