One Piece Cigar Pen

[JHFerrell]

I haven't posted many pictures of my pens but wanted to share this one. It is a modification of the standard cigar pen. I can't recall seeing anyone do this particular mod before but that doesn't mean much. Regardless, this is a one piece cigar pen in Thuya Burl on a gold cigar kit. This is the first time I've attempted to modify this particular kit. What do you think of it?

Good to see you post a pen John . I like the on piece idea . It's nice , and that's a pretty blank . The transition to the nib is a bit of a step down . Otherwise , very nice ! Good job !

Great pen and great idea on the one piece.

Thanks for the kind words. Chuck....I see what you are referring to but I think it's a reflection or something (probably a result of my poor photography skills!) because there really isn't a shoulder there. Not sure what it is. Glad you liked it though.

I like the modification john! How is the pen retracted or is that not functional with your mod?

Very creative.....I love the wood.

That is SWEET! All the beauty and size of a cigar, without the distraction (and weight) of a centerband. The cigar is my favorite pen as it show the material off so well. Your modification makes it several steps better.

really glad you guys like this pen. John it is fully functional, just hold the nib and twist the body itself.
