Palm is an interesting material. You can clearly see the fibers. I suppose that's what gives it its unique look. Because of its fibrous nature, I was afraid of tearouts, which I did have. But they're small, the pen is for me, and who among us is without flaws? So I left them. I don't like my wood pens to be perfect.

I need to add some click pens to my repertoire. I never cared for the palms, red or black. Don't know why, yours is a nice pen.

Even among Roses mate there are thorns Palm is as you say really hollow tubes wizened up, cranky but oh so rewarding Jim you tamed that shrew of a blank like the rugged appearance truly represents the nature of the beast.

It certainly looks tricky to work with. I agree with you that wood can be made to look too perfect. You have made a great job of this one.
