Even though I've left the corporate world where I normally had a pen in my hand for hours, I still have week spot for wood pens.
These aren't that high end

it has a cross refill seems to write decent. takes me a little over an hour to complete one start to finish. That's including polishing...
This is the first Hybrid metal/wood pen Ive made. I like the Majestic series pens they are bigger but feel better.
