Cocobolo Burl Fountain Pen

[MikeL]

It has been a while since I made a fountain pen. It is a rare find to run across cocobolo Burl. It is pretty stunning wood. Hope you like the character in this wood as much as I do. It is very rich and full of distinctive character not found in many other woods. Thanks for looking.

Stunning!
Did you also hand-make the other parts of the pen?
What kind of nib is that?

[MikeL]

Thanks
It is a high end pen kit from dayacom (one of the best you can get) with a steel JoWo medium nib.

Thank you! Cocobolo is a very rich wood as you know. Combine Burl into the wood and it makes for a nervous turning to not mess up!
