My dad (79 and still works as a money manager) loves my pens; he cherishes them all. He is really not into gifts; so he will get another pen. He doesn't have one of these yet. As you can see, my segmenting has not ventured very far, but I am still amused by the different wood combinations. My joints are getting tighter and I am making good use of my cut-offs (and managed not to cut-off the tip of my thumb..thanks to the help of Charlie/DieselDoc. Have a great day folks - we are only promised this one.
