Yup... it's no lie...

But with work and pheasants taking priority at the moment, its been a while since I made the workshop...


BUt here it is folks... the first pen of the Month.. or maybe two...

:pray:











Elm Burr resin Hybrid with a Titanium Sierra...

It was forced work, I have a colleague leaving work in the morning, so we are taking her out to dinner...
IN the last few years she has been one of my bigger customers, but never bought one for herself.. so its kinda a freebie..

:eeeeek:

Sorry Matt I am disappointed, when you mentioned pheasants I was expecting to see a feather pen.
At least a game pie for dinner but to show a rotten bit wood salvaged with plastic did my heart no good.
Probably a very nice pen in the flesh bt to me the background has more character.
OOh you are slag me right off when I next show something, I can feel it in my bones.

Ignore George, I love it.

Is that one of the George Watkins ( am I right ) blanks ?

I know on the face of it they seem pricey to some people but when they come out like that then to me, they're worth every penny !

Well worth the wait Matty, your colleague will be well impressed with this pen ... :thumbs:

I don't believe George actually looks at the pens, he waits for someone who hasn't made a pen for a long time and comments on them to make sure this does not happen again .. :bwink:
