I made a similar pair before Christmas, and a colleague of the recipient was so impressed he put in an order for exactly the same!

So, a pair of chairmans, stabilised buckeye burr, and I'm in the process of grinding the nib to a 0.9mm italic, via some (a lot) practice nibs!

What a treat Gav two different in three ways exceptional pens firstly the colour (unusual), Shape (pronounced), and they look smallish and do not post. On all three counts fits easy in a pocket (could be heavy?) easy to hold and standout grain.

Love them mate.
