I took the rubbish handle I did off the awl and remade one tonight in the same shape as the one Woody showed (Sorry Woody but I'm rubbish at thinking out new shapes ). Made in Indian Ebony and finished with CA.

Looks great Paul - I need to make one of these, I've got no idea what to do with it but at least I don't have to search for a pen anymore, anymore, anymore since I started on this great forum. So I'm sure I'll find a good use for it :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs:
