Hi Woody. The finish is the finish i still use today Friction polish then two or three coats of carnauba wax. Still the best . My opinion for what its worth.

Great that is just how I do it I ask you to prove a point on polish finish I have been saying for years polish is the best finish and now you turn up saying the same great

James then pen sure has done well bit like my grandfathers axe with the new nib end. Excellent pen. The Canauba Wax coats have to be thin ones else it spoils as it goes is my experience my original stick is only part worn after 20 years to prove it.
