Finally, we come to this Cigar style pen which is done up in what I initially thought was a Mirkwood alumilite blank (from Jonathon Brooks), - which is what the customer ordered - but as I turned it, and saw no green, I realized that it was actually a Guiness (or Root Beer, depending on your drinking habits) alumilite. But now, as I take a few pictures of it in good lighting, I see a few hints of green, and am starting to wonder if this may in fact be Mirkwood, but with very, very little green. Honestly, I don't know. Here too, I will let the customer decide if it fits the bill in terms of taste. if not, it will be up for sale.
Anyhow, it is my usual Cigar style of pen, and is fitted with a broad steel JoWo nib, and is a cartridge/convterter filler.
Cheers,
Ken
Just to let you know, the customer decided - this is a keeper! The finish and craftsmanship is amazing, everything I was hoping for and more. I've just inked the pen with Diamine ochre - the nib as tuned by Ken just glides across the page. Makes me want to write!
