An Empress in Hornbeam, a Chairmans in Bubinga and a slimline in a burr from where I don't know but any guesses welcome.

Like the burr, goes well with the gun metal, wonder when you got that bubinga?!! Turns and finishes well doesn't it.

Enough said about that empress, hornbeam is a bit unspectacular but nicely done all round

Three nice pens Paul. Like many others the burr is the one for me. I have got a load of Empress FP kits to do that I brought on a whim when Axi had them on offer.
