Not my cup of tea for an EDC, but someone is going to flip over it. The pen is perfect, as per normal in your case, but I would add twenty quid to the price of it. "She will spot it. He will buy it for her so he can get it over with and go for pints." Marketing genius, Mark.

Clean ,cluttered ,just like people love,the choice of the Shakespeare for this pen is a larger billboard for the images portrayed.Nemo gets a showing as well. Nautical and very nice IMHO a certain seller. Immaculate turning and finishing Mark.

Most polymer clay blanks that have the decals come pre sized or 'kit specific' and are made to the bushes.....so a light polish and a CA finish......Dan at Taylors Mirfield is now stocking her Sierra/ Sirocco/ Ares blanks....
This one was made undersize and cast in resin for me...i saw someone else with that idea and liked it

Swift specs there Mark I would think this is a good way to go,certainly you made a great example of the method. What a coup for Dan to stock her creations nowadays.Congratulations on your undoubted skill with this pen.

Peter.
