A Gold plated Slimline on a Sycamore blank that was given to me by Brian i believe when Woody had his open day .. The cross and center band are made from Bloodwood. Given a friction and Renaissance wax finish...

Excellent pen Jim ticks all the boxes for me. Could not help thinking seeing your use of bloodwood that this timber may solve some of the problems occuring in the detailed Kingfisher pen.

Your detail shaping is very pleasing.

Kind regards Peter.:goesred:

Nice one Jim I do like a Celtic knot on a Slimline and you always do a nice knot init?
Not sure if I gave you the wood though I remember taking Zebrano and sycamore logs, the logs for Woody's store.
Whoever is still nice.

It was Woody's sycamore, Jim. Got a few bits in my box still. You are the master of he slimline AND he master of the Celtic knot, and this pen just proves it!
