    Lignum vitae Mistrals

    Well this commission for rollerballs and fountain pens was a real test, the wood was only just thick enough to use. Very little room for error in drilling or finishing.

    Bethlehem Sirocco's

    When I started turning a colleague of mine said he liked one of my pens, so I made him a couple. He is a very religious soul and does some amazing work with the less fortunate. He is a street Pastor most nights, making sure the homeless are safe. He puts up with so much abuse but still he...
