A majestic in Hyrid Burr/Resin...... in gold and chrome... kind of like these heavyweight jobs....

And an Irish Walnut chrome pencil, with a nice 'Knot'

I get a lot from George watkins.... I try to only use them where I get two pens from them...... Works out about £4 a pen if you buy enough together..
Very easy to sell... But can be tricky to turn..

Two lovely looking pens Matty, the knot couldn't have been in a better place than where it is, it makes it very unique ... :thumbs:

You've done well with the knot Matty, very easy to ruin the blank if you're not ultra careful.

These are both great.
I never actually thought of using them for two single blank pens, i know a bit dim yes, as i do with other more expensive blanks. But i have a few left from from some i bought across the pond a year or so ago and only used in big pens.
Much better idea to get two out of them.
Very nice finish.

Regards

Pete
