Lovely pen, Angelo. I have always enjoyed seeing pens on IAP made from Buckeye burl and on looking up that American timber find that it is the same genus as our Horse Chestnut.
That is something new that I learned today.

Smooth as silk Angelo I am always torn between the junction between the cap and the body of the pen being a step or my personal preference is to bring the body up the cap. Yes I agree the bevelling is another way to go and with this pen gives oomph.

Now having been a maker for forty years makers privilige prevails in this case a beaut pen mate.

Peter.
