Was given access to 60 yr old Olive trees (an abandoned Grove a few hrs from my home.I still have some more to cut up). I love Olive Wood.

Hi Pete

I am jealous, very jealous. Fantastic pen design. I wish I could do that. I too love Olive wood but it's grown in the UK as far as I am aware.
Lucky man having a good and ample supply. Love the smell of it when turning. Nice, very nice pen.

Cheers
Frederick
