This pen has lasted well Peter as snake wood has a nasty habit of splitting so far down the line. Still looks great.:thumbs:

Great looking pen Peter, the last pen i made using this wood lasted just over a year for the bottom blank on a Baron kit to split .. The top blank went well over a year later before that split?? :down:
