My 15 year old son made this thin pen from a figured maple blank we got from KJP Select Hardwoods. These very skinny pens are apparently more difficult to turn especially with figured woods which tend to catch and tear out. He gave me this one for Christmas last year. It's been sitting on my desk being used on an almost daily basis since then.

My 15 year old son made this pen using an African Blackwood blank we bought at KJP Select Hardwoods. I love the contrast betwen the naturally black wood and the nickel mechanics.

We were at KJP yesterday and I bought another blank for him.

My 15 year old son made this pen. The wood is reclaimed charred oak from a Jack Daniels whiskey barrel. He gave me this pen for my birthday and it is my new daily driver. It's a nice size and weight and it writes beautifully.
