    Default A New Trio

    Hi folks.

    Just thought I would post my latest order, one headed shortly to the UK. If you've seen a lot of my pens before, well, not much new here. But it is fun to have pics to look at so I figured I'd add to the fun.

    This order consisted of two Cigar style pens in my larger sizing (thicker nib section and barrel), and one 'Curvy' style pen in my standard sizing.

    The first Cigar is of Ruby Flake acrylic:




    The second, in Charger Lava resin from Bear Tooth Woods (a resin that is quite reminiscent of Van Gogh's 'Starry Night'):



    The third, in a yellow acrylic with a black swirl, with black framing. The cap finial also has an axial inlay of yellow:




    Thanks for looking!

    Cheers,

    Ken

    The second, in Charger Lava resin from Bear Tooth Woods is quite the star-burst - Seems like it is shouting with Joy - or in this case Color. Nice presentation! like BAMB - I'm HERE!

    Nice looking pen - Which by the way all your pens that I have seen you post are nice looking pens.

    Thanks for making me drool.....

    Love the pens especially the Ruby Flake. Think I am a traditionalist at heart

    That ruby flake pen is stunning; and I really like the yellow w/black swirl, too. You, sir, are an artist.

    Charger Lava resin from Bear Tooth Woods (a resin that is quite reminiscent of Van Gogh's 'Starry Night')
    Loud and proud. I think it is better than Starry Night, it seems much more cosmic.

    The other pens are wonderful too.

    Fantastic! I like the Charger Lava very much. The color and the pattern are amazing. Can I have this wonderful cigar?

    I think the Charger Lava resin version is going to be my favorite from that lot. Awesome work as always Ken.

    The Ruby Flake acrylic just made me drop my glass of Glenlivet 15 years on my laps.. i'm wet, and the glass isn't broken..
    Thank you for allowing me to take a look at this magnificent masterpiece.

    I just love the colors on the second pen, it reminds me of the world. Using such a pen is a bit like having the world in your hand to write with.

    Shape wise I really like the last one with a tapered and curved barrel. The detail of the top cap is really nice! Congratulations!!

    Why not install clips? I like them like that but would love to know why you decided not to.
