Nice one Jim I like that a lot.
Spot on cross init?
And I am not usually keen on zebrano, it can look really messy.

Not a lover of zebrano but that looks good to me

Woody, all the Zebrano i have had all seemed stringy and didn't turn to well, i picked up a couple of blanks from yours what Brian had dropped off as this seemed much better than i have ever had, this blank came from David (lignaterrae) that is selling blanks and it is not like all the Zebrano crap i have had before .. Also not as pungent ... :nooidea:

Normally i wouldn't touch the stuff ... :kiss:

Neat cross Jim, but can't help thinking it would have looked better on the bottom half of the pen.

Might just be me and "eye of beholder" but I believe it's lost up there with the clip hindering the view of such a well made blank and cross. Still a nice pen though..:thumbs:
